This book is great for students at a beginner or intermediate level. It is about a girl who loves to play the drums but lives in a place where only boys are allowed to play. However, she impresses her music teacher and continues to prove people wrong throughout the book by showing that girls can also play the drums. I would introduce this book to my classroom to show my students what it can be like to overcome adversity and learn more about music culture.

This book was a great, easy, and informational read. I think it works great in order to teach children about important icons and people in latin american history without all the long biographies of their lives. It highlights their lives as young children as well as their achievements as adults. Great read!

This book is a poem book related to the fight for independence in Cuba. This poem book reveals beautiful pieces of Cubas troubled past that focus on hidden moments in time. This poetry book is great for 3-8th grade because it can help students in literature and writing while focusing on culture.

This collection of poems are all about hispanic leaders and artists. It is vibrantly illustrated in multimedia drawings depicting the subjects and their work. Most poems would be good for all grades, some have heavier topics in them(abuse, death, etc). Would be a great way to introduce Hispanic heritage month.
