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!

Luci was born without a shadow. Mama says no one notices. But Luci
does. And sometimes others do too. Sometimes they stare, sometimes
they tease Luci, and sometimes they make her cry. But when Luci
learns to look at what makes her different as a strength, she
realises she has more power than she ever thought. And that her
differences can even be a superpower.
