So©Þnadores  Cover Image Book Book

So©Þnadores / Yuyi Morales ; traducci©Øon de Teresa Mlawer.

Morales, Yuyi, (author.). Mlawer, Teresa, (translator.).

Summary:

"En 1994, Yuyi Morales dej©Øo su hogar en Xalapa, M©Øexico, para emigrar a Estados Unidos con su hijo peque©Þno. Aunque dej©Øo atr©Øas casi todas sus pertenencias, no lleg©Øo con las manos vac©Øias. Trajo consigo su fortaleza, su trabajo, su pasi©Øon, sus esperanzas y sue©Þnos ... y sus historias. El nuevo y magn©Øifico libro de Yuyi Morales, So©Þnadores, se centra en la b©Øusqueda por encontrar un hogar en un nuevo lugar. El trayecto de Yuyi y su hijo Kelly no fue f©Øacil, ya que ella no hablaba ingl©Øes en esa ©Øepoca. Pero, juntos, descubrieron un lugar desconocido e incre©Øible: la biblioteca p©Øublica. All©Øi, libro a libro, descifraron la lengua de esta nueva tierra y formaron en ella su hogar. So©Þnadores es un homenaje a los migrantes y a todo lo que traen con ellos, y aportan, cuando dejan sus pa©Øises. Es una historia de familia. Una historia que nos recuerda que todos somos so©Þnadores que llevamos nuestros propios regalos donde quiera que vayamos. Bella y poderosa en todo momento, pero especialmente de una urgente premura hoy en d©Øia en que el futuro de los dreamers es incierto, esta es una historia actual y eterna."--Amazon.
"This Spanish edition of Caldecott Honoree Yuyi Morales's Dreamers, published simultaneously with the English edition, is the author's own immigration story and a tribute to the transformative power of hope and reading. In 1994, 25-year-old Yuyi Morales traveled from her home in Xalapa, Mexico, to the San Francisco Bay Area with her two-month-old son, Kelly, in order to secure permanent residency in this country. Her passage was not easy and she spoke no English whatsoever. But due in large measure to help and guidance provided by area children's librarians, she learned English as her young son learned to read, through the picture books they shared together. In spare, lyrical verse and the vibrant images for which she has become legendary, Yuyi has created a lasting testament to the journeys, both physical and metaphorical, that she and Kelly have taken together in the intervening years. Beautiful and powerful at any time, but given particular urgency as the status of our own Dreamers becomes uncertain, this is a story that is both topical and timeless"-- Provided by publisher.
