Waiting for the Biblioburro/Esperando El Biblioburro
Sinopsis del Libro
A remarkable tale of books and reading, now in a bilingual Spanish-English edition. On most days, teacher and librarian Luis Soriano Bohorquez packs his two burros, Alfa and Beto, with books and makes his way over mountains and through valleys to visit children in far-flung villages in rural Colombia all for the sake of literacy and culture. Based on the work of a remarkable man and his intrepid burros, this bilingual English and Spanish edition celebrates the impact that a special mobile library called the biblioburro has had on the lives of real children. About the author: Monica Brown s Peruvian American heritage has inspired in her a desire to share Latino stories with children. Her books have garnered starred reviews, the Americas Award, two Pura Belpre Author Honors, and the prestigious Rockefeller Fellowship on Chicano Cultural Literacy. Monica is currently Professor of English at Northern Arizona University, specializing in U.S. Latino and Multicultural Literature. Visit her at monicabrown.net."
