Night after night, a young girl watches her mami set up a cot in the living room for guests in their Washington Heights apartment, like Raquel (who's boring) and Edgardo (who gets crumbs everywhere). She resents that they get the entire living room with a view of the George Washington Bridge, while all she gets is a tiny bedroom with a view of her sister (who snores). Until one night, no one comes, and it's finally her chance! But as it turns out, sleeping in the cot in the living room isn't all she thought it would be. A celebration of the ways a Dominican American community takes care of one another while showing young readers that sometimes the best way to be a better neighbor is by imagining how it feels to spend a night sleeping on someone else's pillow. 521 $a Ages 4-8. $b Kokila. 650 0 $a Empathy $v Juvenile fiction. 650 0 $a Envy $v Juvenile fiction. 650 0 $a Babysitting $v Juvenile fiction. 650 0 $a Dominican American children $z New York $z New York $v Juvenile fiction. 655 7 $a Picture books. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Social problem fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Didactic fiction. $2 lcgft 700 1 $a D'Alessandro, Gaby, $e illustrator. 941 $a 21 952 $l GOPG641 $d 20240409041110.0 952 $l BRPD251 $d 20240119015835.0 952 $l UGPF911 $d 20231207012752.0 952 $l YEPF572 $d 20231012030304.0 952 $l BOPG851 $d 20231010025256.0 952 $l YFPC572 $d 20221022014227.0 952 $l HLPC845 $d 20220923010439.0 952 $l TDPH826 $d 20220630010555.0 952 $l UJPE911 $d 20220402013826.0 952 $l GHPD771 $d 20220201014651.0 952 $l BJPD251 $d 20211215014452.0 952 $l GDPF771 $d 20211209010301.0 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20211111010737.0 952 $l WXPD305 $d 20211021034354.0 952 $l WWPC305 $d 20211019011604.0 952 $l UNUX074 $d 20211019011131.0 952 $l YUPD232 $d 20211019010154.0 952 $l GBPF771 $d 20210803014622.0 952 $l TCPG826 $d 20210803010539.0 952 $l KOPC446 $d 20210724010225.0 952 $l SAPG074 $d 20210723014458.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=491A4ED0CA7A11EBB3507DA22FECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b IOUInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
