EXAMPLE REVIEW

A Crown for Corina

by Laekan Zea Kemp, Elisa Chavarri

(Little, Brown)

Reviewer: Cynthia Kern OBrien

Today is Corina’s birthday, and she’s excited to wear the biggest crown with the most beautiful flowers picked from her abuela’s garden. Each flower tells a special story about all the ways Corina is rooted in the family she loves. The colors and bright illustrations are amazing! A wonderful story about Corina and her abuela making long lasting memories exploring the flowers in the garden while learning about tradition and family. (Ages 4-8)
