"Every Saturday, Carina visits Tía Mimi in her barrio, which is always humming with life. There is música that hums from the windows, old cuentos floating on the breeze, and the honking of cars that create the soundtrack of the morning. Every Saturday, she loves to make empanadas with her aunt, singing: 'I like empanadas! I like you! ¡ Me gusta empanadas! ¡Me gustas tú!' Not this Saturday, though. This Saturday, Tía Mimi has gone to volunteer at the neighborhood food center and asks Carina to make empanadas all on her own. But maybe, with a little guidance from friends, Carina will be able to help Tía Mimi--and learn a little about what connects a community along the way."--Front cover flap.
