It is a difficult experience, and as she tells the story of her family and those who work with them, there is a sense of pride for her family and how very hard they work. In particular, she speaks of her father in such loving terms that show a great deal of respect for the fact that he is able to prouduce so much for his hard work.
The artistry is beautfiful, and this Caldecott winning book allows the reader to feel the pride, the love of family and the strong bond they share.">
It is a hard life made special by the bonds and the routine of migrant life.
Highly Recommended.
