From Yamile Saied Méndez, acclaimed author of Where Are You From?, comes a stunning lyrical picture book that tells the story of one girl who is always asked a simple question: What will you be when you grow up?
Méndez and Alizadeh create a balance between the abstract and concrete by letting the child imagine the future but with Abuela's guidance and support. A sweet read to share with loved ones. --Kirkus (starred review)
Turning a common question of childhood into a substantive quest, this imaginative set of plans will have other children charting their own course through the stars. --School Library Journal
What will you be when you grow up?
