Gathering the Sun: Author Study Alma Flor Ada

A wonderful book for a young ESL classroom, or a way to expand the horizons of English speaking students, Gathering the Sun is a beautifully illustrated book that travels through the alphabet in both Spanish and English. The book allows for students to see the hard work that many migrant families went through in a book of ABC poetry. I loved the deep colors that the illustrator painted each page with, rich warm and full of life, understand a journey and travel along with A B and C.
