"YaYa" is the commonly used nickname for a much-beloved grandmother in the Catalan language in Spain and in other countries in the Mediterranean area. The YaYa Books is a trilogy of books about a little boy and his grandmother who is from Spain, and the culture he inherited through her. Book 1, A Book for YaYa, simply tells of the love the little boy has for his grandmother, as he says in the book, "even when she makes me take a bath and wash behind my ears." In Book 2, YaYa's Country House, the little boy describes his grandmother's house in the country and her old world way of life, and what he likes most about it. Book 3, Christmas at YaYa's, is dedicated to the culture and traditions of both Spain and Mexico at Christmastime. There are full-color illustrations of the Bel n and the wise men approaching the manger from the mountains, as well as lively images in black and white throughout the pages of each book. The YaYa Books is a heart-warming and universally appealing description of the love and respect between a little boy and his grandmother. They are written is both English and Spanish so that the readers may enjoy reading the books in the language they are the most comfortable with. They are books that you will enjoy reading with your children and grandchildren over and over again.
