LA Catrina

I am reading this book in Spanish 2 Honors. I would recommend it for Honors students in Spanish 2. Not that I don't believe the regular class would understand it, it can just be a bit confusing at times. This story is about Jamie Gonzalez, a senior at Northgate High School in Los Angeles who travels to Queretaro, Mexico to learn more about her grandmother, dona Josefa de Gonzalez. She learns that her grandmother was a beautiful and rich woman long ago, and was known as "La Catrina". Read the book and find out who she was and what happened to her. It's a good book for Spanish students, and the movie accompanies it well.

La Catrina es muy rica, verdad!

This is a book for anyone who is a beginner of Spanish. It is about a girl named Jaime Gonzalez - about to go to UCLA - but first traveles to Queretaro, Mexico to learn more about her culture. She soons finds out that her bisabuela (grandmother) was very rich and Jaime inherits all her land. This movie is also good - but the book is better. I recommend it for any teacher teaching Level 2 Espanol - or for anybody learning it themselves!
