This is the sequel to Jane Tenorio-Coscarelli's The Tortilla Quilt. The Tamale Quilt explores yet another Hispanic tradition, this time through the eyes of Nana Isabel and her two grandchildren Rosa and Manuel. It's Christmas time and poor Rosa is sick during her favorite time of year. With a heart full of love and a special quilt tucked under her arm, Nana Isabel comes to the rescue with wonderful stories of her days on the farm and her mother's delicious tamales.

Each page is filled with even more Spanish vocabulary, and the delightful characters are sure to make a great addition to anyone's library.

Make the traditions your own by recreating the Tamale Quilt from the original pattern, or by filling your own kitchen with the smell of masa and chile. Don't let the captivating charm of Nana Isabel pass you by!
