M is for las muralistas, making murals of island vistas. Waterfalls that hide brick walls. Rain forests full of tropical trees. N is for the noisy neighbors who sit on the stoop and catch the breeze. When Ava's friend Chien visits her in the barrio, she takes him on a tour of all her favorite things about the neighborhood. From fire hydrants to ice-cream trucks, bodegas to trolley tracks, the sights and sounds of the barrio-even the less perfect things-come to life through the words of award-winning playwright Quiara Alegría Hudes. A perfect way to get kids exploring and talking about what makes their own neighborhoods special!
