The Good Stranger’s Sancocho Surprise • El sancocho sorpresa del buen desconocido

“A story of great cariño and hope— one we sorely need in these times of divisiveness, fear, and separation. McLaughlin’s story is a luminous and generous parable of how we can all come together as a human(e) familia on our planetary island home. McLaughlin reveals ‘the true secret of living.’ Read The Good Stranger’s Sancocho Surprise and find out
that secret, and then invite others to this story’s table. Ruddy Núñez’s illustrations add flavor and sabor to this luscious tale. The bilingual text allows readers—across the divide of language, country, and culture—to join together in the feast.”
–Julia Álvarez, author of In the Time of the Butterflies
