On Sara Mee’s first birthday, her family made sure to have a tol, a celebration based in an ancient custom that includes guests, special foods, and gifts for the child that will predict what the child will be when he or she grows up. Realistic illustrations capture the warmth of Sara Mee’s family, her birthday festivity, and the warm relationship shared with her older brother.
