Dancing on Grapes

(4) K-3 Illustrated by Gina Capaldi. Six-year-old Claudia wants to join "the big kids" in the yearly ritual of stomping the grapes, but she's afraid of heights. With wise and sympathetic advice from her grandmother, aunt, and mother, Claudia overcomes her fears and climbs the ladder to the roof of the cantina. Lush, occasionally awkward, illustrations help establish the Italian vineyard setting of this warm family story. Glos.
