This is the story of a mother and a grandmother. This is the story of Mommy Crumbs, but also of her stews, of her dog Leon, of her children and of her granddaughters.

Paula loves to cook, but also to eat, that's why her children and granddaughters call her Mommy Crumbs... she always seems to be covered with them!

One day, Mommy Crumbs' granddaughters give her a very special baby chick and the two become inseparable. The chick grows bigger as Mommy Crumbs gets older. When the chick is larger than the old woman herself, Mommy Crumbs bids farewell to her family and flies away on the magical bird.

Reviews for Mommy Crumbs

Bright colors and soft shapes warm this moving picture book about loss and legacy. As a little girl, Paula dreamed of flying like a bird or galloping like a horse; as she grew, she earned the moniker ""Mommy Crumbs"" for the breadcrumbs that clung to her after cooking for her children and grandchildren. Gifted a chick to clean the crumbs and provide companionship after the loss of her dog, Mommy Crumbs finally gets her chance to fly, leaving a trail of breadcrumbs and memories - Foreword Reviews. Andrés and his mother, González, have written a refreshingly uplifting, understated take on loss (...) A tribute to a long, well-lived life - Kirkus Reviews.
