About this book

Español

Imagina

¿Alguna vez has imaginado quién serás cuando crezcas? Cuando Juan Felipe Herrera era niño, recogió flores de manzanilla en campos ventosos, ayudó a su mamá a alimentar a los pollitos, durmió bajo el cielo centelleante y aprendió a decirles adiós a sus amiguitos cada vez que su familia campesina seguía el camino. Aprendió a leer y escribir en inglés, llenó cuadernos con ríos de tinta y llegó a ser poeta laureado de los Estados Unidos. Un poema autobiográfico luminoso, ilustrado por Lauren Castillo, que invita a cada soñador a imaginar su propio futuro.

English

Imagine

Have you ever imagined who you might become? As a boy, Juan Felipe Herrera picked chamomile flowers in windy fields, helped feed the chicks, slept beneath a sky full of stars, and said goodbye to his amiguitos each time his farmworker family moved on. He taught himself to read and write English and filled pages with rivers of ink — and grew up to become the Poet Laureate of the United States. In this luminous autobiographical poem, illustrated by Caldecott Honoree Lauren Castillo, every dreamer is invited to wonder: what could you do? Imagine.
