A Reward for Josefina

In this little book Josefina wants to get the attention and praise of Tia Dolores. To do so she wants to take part in the gathering of pinon nuts, but her father wants her to stay back and watch their lunch and her nephew.

She proves she's quick-witted, though, when a chance to gather nuts presents itself despite not being able to go with the others. It's a cute story and has a historical section that has information about the food-gathering activities of the people of the times.
