The Spanish edition of Isla takes readers on a magical journey set in the same world as Arthur Dorros's award-winning Abuela!

Cuando Rosalba y su abuela están juntas, la aventura se respire en el ambiente. En Abuela, libro recipiente de varios premios, Rosalba y su abuela exploran la ciudad de Nueva York a través de la imaginacion de la niña y el espíritu vivaz de la abuela. Esta vez viajan a La Isla, el lugar donde la abuela creció. La fuerza expresiva del texto y las llamativas ilustraciones tipo collage evocan la alegria y el entusiasmo de Rosalba al sentirse parte de las historias de la isla que le relata su abuela con orgullo.
