Un libro de honor de Pura Belpré, Los remedios de mi Tata es una historia bilingüe de sabiduría familiar y tradicional cuando Tata le enseña a su nieto Aaron remedios naturales a través de la curación de vecinos y familiares.

His wife, Grandmother Nana, is there too, bringing delicious food and humor to help Tata's patients heal. A glossary with herbal remedies is featured at the end of the book, which includes useful information about each plant, plus botanically correct drawings.

Review :
"Remarkable, realistic watercolor illustrations reveal the emotions felt by the sufferers, while the bilingual text conveys Tata's expertise in alleviating their discomfort and in teaching his grandson about natural remedies... An illuminating glimpse into a tradition not often addressed in children's literature." -- Booklist "So many cultural treasures are dependent on word-of-mouth transmission, and this story encourages grandparents to lovingly pass on their knowledge to eager grandchildren and family members." -- Kirkus Reviews "A lovely intergenerational story... The bilingual text is strong, and the story will appeal to those looking for loving intergenerational relationships and Latino family traditions." -- School Library Journal "In this beautifully constructed book, the topic of traditional natural medicine takes center stage ... Roni Rivera-Ashford portrays a loving intergenerational relationship between Tata Gus and Aaron, one in which wisdom and knowledge are patiently passed down from grandfather to grandson." -- Consortium of Latin American Studies Programs Pura Belpré Illustrator Award Honor - American Library Association (ALA) ALSC Notable Children's Books - American Library Association (ALA) Américas Award Commended Title - Consortium of Latin American Studies Programs International Latino Book Award Winner - Empowering Latino Futures
