César

Born in 1927 in Yuma, Arizona, César Chavez lived the hard-scrabble life of a migrant worker during the Depression. Although his mother wanted him to get an education, César left school after eighth grade to work. He grew to be a charismatic leader and founded the National Farm Workers Association, an organization that fought for basic rights for farm workers. In powerful poems and dramatic stylized illustrations, Carmen T. Bernier-Grand and David Díaz pay tribute to Chavez's legacy helping migrant workers improve their lives by doing things by themselves for themselves.

Presents the things that everyone needs, as well as things some people want, and invites the reader to consider his or her own wants and needs.

Sus poemas, en una lengua exacta, sin condescendencia o lo retorico, logran descigrar el mundo, elevarse sobre lo cotidiano y rozar la esencia, lo...
