De mi madre lo aprendí (Living by Los Dichos)

Well known Spanish-television "Judge" Cristina Perez opens a window into her Latino community as she celebrates life and interweaves traditional Latino dichos (sayings and proverbs) into her life experiences. It is impossible to read a dicho without learning something important. Cristina allows readers to peer into her life, as she offers reflections and guidance on many issues facing us today. Cristina celebrates her Latino community and culture, but most importantly, rejoices in the spirit of what she believes defines a woman in today's world. The book is written for everyone, regardless of gender or race, but geared especially for young women and men, who hold the key to unlock the secret of success for future generations - for their respective cultures. This book reminds readers that life should not be taken for granted but lived to the fullest extent.
