Margarita Engle, Newbery Honor-winning author and Young People's Poet Laureate Emeritus "In this sweet and hopeful story, Harmony pays homage to the city of her birth. At first the streets of Mexico City ring with happy sounds and song as the young protagonist stomps, skips, and leaps through her neighborhood. With the great rumble of an earthquake, there is suddenly silence, and new sounds–of fear. Soon though, hands clasp together as people help each other, and the ciudad wakes up once again to music." –-
Monica Brown, award-winning author This lovely picture book will inspire kids (and adults) to take a moment to listen to the world around them. It will also inject a sense of pride in their neighborhood and surroundings. The familiar 'Look to the helpers' is accompanied by 'look to your neighbor' in this stirring picture book" –-
