"Cecelia and Miguel are best friends." So begins every page of this sweet tale of lifelong friendship told in simple English and Spanish text. The kids grow up together and eventually marry and have twins. The amateurish illustrations are made to look like photos pasted in a scrapbook, lending the book a nostalgic feel that will appeal most to adult couples.
