Ruben is a blue horse who dreams of going to college at a well-known university. He is determined to achieve his personal and academic goals, even though he faces obstacles. Although his schoolwork has suffered because he is a second-language learner, he is not ready to give up. Rubens high school counselor is not very encouraging, but with the help of a professor from a local community college, he soon learns that there may be another way for him to reach his dreams. The Blue Horse Who Wanted to Go to College seeks to encourage structured classroom conversations to allow students to reach high levels of academic language and to develop crucial skills related to second-language acquisition. It nurtures literacy skills by allowing students to read with a purpose, to integrate new information, and to identify the writers point of view. This bilingual tale of a blue horse hoping to go to college promotes active reading through relatable experiences among students working on second-language acquisition.
