From a New York Times bestselling and Pura Belpré Honor-winning creator comes a heartwarming picture book celebrating essential workers during the COVID-19 pandemic that's also a lively, bilingual game of Veo, Veo (I Spy).

Marisol's mami is the best cook at Rosita's Cafe! But now, the restaurant is closed. A bad virus--too easy to catch in small, crowded places--is going around.

Marisol, Pepito, and Mami still need to go out to bring Mami's arroz con pollo to housebound Tía Olga and Cousin Johnny. As Marisol and Pepito watch the people working around the neighborhood, who their mother explains have essential work, Marisol thinks of the perfect game to play:
Veo, veo...
Qué ves, Marisol?
I spy...a trash collector. Essential work. Those bins were full!

By the time they get home, Marisol has another idea: a way to show the people in her neighborhood that she sees them!
