Spanish tortilla / La tortilla de papas

Sandra Siemens · illustrated by Claudia Degliuomini

Bilingual Book Walk Story

Carmen goes to the store to buy eggs, but on the way she discovers a world of simple, beautiful things and forgets about the eggs. She returns home again and again with all sorts of foods and flowers—but not the eggs. A circular story that reminds us that sometimes it is about the journey, not the destination.
