We Are Cousins | Somos primos

Written by Diane Gonzales Bertrand | Piñata Books
Ages 2 to 5 | ISBN 978-1558854864

Cousins are friends and rivals. Cousins are funny and frustrating.  But the most important thing is that cousins are family. We are Cousins / Somos primos celebrates the joy of this special family bond.

The children explain that they are cousins because their mothers are sisters, and from the moment they get together, the fun begins.  They march in a make-believe parade, gobble up a pizza, and share a cozy story on Abuelo’s lap. But they also blame each other if something goes wrong, don’t want to share their toys, and wiggle against each other to nab a spot on Abuela’s lap.
