Summary:

"Every day, Abuela misses the ocean in Puerto Rico. But on Saturdays, when the sun is high, Abuela takes her granddaughter on a walk down the hill in Harlem to Twelfth Avenue, to a place that is just as magical: the Hudson River. There, they admire the iconic waterway that brought millions of new Americans to its shores, make offerings to Yemaya, the goddess portrayed as a mermaid in ancient religions, and celebrate familial love passed down through the generations, showing the vastness of expansive intergenerational love, memory and the childlike curiosity they each inspire."-- Provided by publisher.
"Todos los días, la abuela extraña el océano en Puerto Rico. Pero los sábados, cuando el sol está alto en el cielo, la abuela y su nieta recorren Harlem hacia la 12 Avenida camino a un lugar mágico: al río Hudson. Allí, visitan a las Yamaya, sirenas que invocan la maravilla infantil y conservan la memoria de todos los que han pasado por sus aguas. Juntas, la abuela, su nieta y los espíritus de la antigua religión y el amor familiar celebran el río que ha traído a millones de nuevos estadounidenses a sus orillas a lo largo de las generaciones."-- Provided by publisher.
