Migrant
MIGRANT by Jose Manuel Mateo with illustrations by Javier Martinez Pedro. Abrams, 2014.
Untie the ribbon that wraps the covers of this book and unfurl the accordion pages. Text in English and in Spanish accompany black and white illustrations that tell a deeper story of a family that comes to America as migrant workers. The format of this book is certain to attract readers. The illustrations add new dimensions to the book.
