Poems to Dream Together / Poemas para sonar juntos

(4) K-3 Illustrated by Paula Barragan. These seventeen bilingual poems, in both Spanish and English, celebrate family, friends, and the Latino experience. The collection has a strong social conscience, but a few of the pieces seem like didactic exercises. The stylized illustrations provide a rich palette heavy on blues and green. Alarcón's introductory autobiographical note encourages readers to "keep on dreaming for good!"
