Antes de encabezar una marcha pacífica de 340 millas por California, César Chávez era un niño tímido y callado al que molestaban en la escuela, que vivía en cobertizos destartalados y trabajaba en los campos como jornalero migrante. Sabía que la vida de los trabajadores agrícolas tenía que cambiar y creyó que quizá él podría ayudar a lograrlo. César alzó la voz y todo un país lo escuchó. Esta emotiva biografía ilustrada presenta a los jóvenes lectores a un valiente líder de los derechos civiles e incluye una nota del autor con contexto histórico.

English Translation

Harvesting Hope: The Story of Cesar Chavez

Before he led a 340-mile peaceful protest march across California, Cesar Chavez was a shy, soft-spoken boy who was teased at school, lived in ramshackle sheds, and labored in the fields as a migrant worker. He knew life had to change for farmworkers, and he believed that maybe he could help change it. So Cesar spoke up, and an entire country listened. This moving illustrated biography introduces young readers to a courageous civil rights leader, and includes an author's note that places his remarkable life in historical context.
