Charcoal Letters

In the village of Palenque, almost no one knows how to read. When Gina starts receiving letters she imagines are love notes, her little sister decides she must learn to read so she can tell Gina what they say. With the help of Mr. Velandia, the shopkeeper, the young girl discovers the letters all around her and the magic of reading. This tender picture book celebrates curiosity, sisterly love, and the transformative power of literacy in a small, close-knit community.
