Empanadas for Everyone

Written by Jackie Azúa Kramer and Illustrated by Lenny Wen
Carina spends every Saturday visiting Tía Mimi in her lively barrio, where everything seems to dance with sound. Music drifts from open windows, old stories swirl through the warm air, and car horns beep a cheerful rhythm. Every Saturday, Carina and her aunt make empanadas together, singing their favorite song: “I like empanadas! I like you! ¡Me gustan las empanadas! ¡Me gustas tú!”
