Stop and smell the roses of Ecuador with Isabella as she learns how treating farmworkers and Mother Earth fairly makes the world bloom!
A Isabella le encanta escribir, especialmente sobre las flores vibrantes que sus padres cultivan como trabajadores agrÃcolas. Cuando su profesora anuncia un concurso de escritura para una asamblea escolar en honor a la Pachamama, la Madre Tierra, Isabela decide escribir sobre las fincas de rosas en donde rosas rosadas, rojas, amarillas y anaranjadas crecen en filas que no terminan nunca.
En dulces poemas y anotaciones en su diario, Isabella menciona cómo sus padres se sienten mucho mejor trabajando en una nueva finca de Comercio Justo. La finca toma varias medidas para mantener seguros tantos a los trabajadores agrÃcolas como al medio ambiente, como tratar de no usar pesticidas peligrosas que hacen que la gente, especialmente trabajadores agrÃcolas, se enfermen. Con un texto claro y alegre de la premiada autora Diana Cohn e ilustraciones cautivadoras, Rosas para Isabela presenta a los lectores las tradiciones culturales del Ecuador y la importancia de tomar decisiones que apoyen a los trabajadores agrÃcolas y al medio ambiente. La premiada ilustradora Amy Córdova Boone presenta el mundo de Isabela en obras de arte tan vibrantes como sus amadas flores. Únete a Isabela en esta celebración de los trabajadores agrÃcolas y los hermosos regalos que recibimos de la Madre Tierra!
Isabella loves to write, especially about the vibrant flowers her parents grow as farmworkers. When her teacher announces a school writing contest in honor of Pachamama, Mother Earth, Isabella decides to write about the rose farms where pink, red, yellow, and orange roses grow in rows that go on forever.
In sweet poems and journal entries, Isabella notes how her parents feel much better working at a new Fair Trade farm. This new farm takes a lot of steps to keep both farmworkers and the environment safe, like avoiding dangerous pesticides that make people, especially farmworkers, sick. With clear, joyful text by award-winning author Diana Cohn, and captivating illustrations, Roses for Isabella introduces readers to the cultural traditions of Ecuador and the importance of making choices that support farmworkers and the environment. Award-winning illustrator Amy Córdova Boone presents Isabella's world in artwork as vibrant as her beloved flowers. Join Isabella in this celebration of farmworkers and the beautiful gifts we receive from Mother Earth!
