A SEASON FOR MANGOES (Clarion Books/Houghton Mifflin Co., $15.00), by Regina Hanson, illustrated by Eric Velasquez, tells the story of a little girl's first so-called "sit-up," a Jamaican tradition that celebrates the life of a loved one who just died. The little girl, Sareen, wants to share her stories of her Nana's last Mango season, but is beset by worry that the words won't come, or that she will cry.
