I'm José and I'm Okay: Three Stories from Bolivia

40 pp. | Kane/Miller | September, 1999 | Trade ISBN 0-916291-90-1 $$13.95
(3) 1-3 Translated by Laura McKenna. José is an eleven-year-old orphan working hard in his uncle's auto repair shop in Bolivia. In these three episodes, based on true stories, José solves problems, wins a bicycle race, and plays tricks on his uncle. The illustrations are a little somber but full of movement and character, and the lively book design energizes the text.
