The Spanish edition of the ALA Pura Belpr Honor Book for Narrative and Illustration about the life and work of Csar Chavez.
Born in 1927 in Yuma, Arizona, Csar Chavez lived the hard-scrabble life of a migrant worker during the Depression. Although his mother wanted him to get an education, Csar 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 Daz pay tribute to Chavez's legacy helping migrant workers improve their lives by doing things by themselves for themselves.
