Abstract Whenever a girl goes to visit her abuelo in Cuba, she loves to help him sell his fruit along with the other street vendors. They make up a song to attract customers, and she enjoys listening to the other vendors' songs as well. The girl is always sad when their visit comes to an end and she must return to her home in the United States, but she is comforted by the fact that she and her abuelo can still communicate through letters.
