      Garza, C.  L.  (1999).  Magic windows.  San Francisco, CA:  Children’s Book Press. Magic Windows is an invitation to experience the culture in South Texas. Garza's  paper cut art has created magic windows that allows us take a peek at her life, her memories, and the things that surround her.We get to see her grandfather, the celebration of the Day of the Dead, and even smell the exquisite scent of home made corn tortillas. This book is filled with folklore and unique illustrations. Garza took the beautiful talent of making cut-paper art and included it in her book to add beauty, color, and life! Even though this book focuses on the Mexican American culture and South Texas, people from all races will certainly enjoy Magic Windows.
