Collecting churros, chiles and healing herbs, a Mexican-American boy bounds from booth to booth visiting fellow flea market vendors in Grandma and Me at the Flea or Los Meros Meros Remateros by Juan Felipe Herrera, illus. by Anita DeLucio-Brock. Evoking the feel of folk art, DeLucio-Brock's full-bleed illustrations form a colorful backdrop for side-by-side Spanish and English text. (Mar.)
