Inspirada en el bestseller #1 del New York Times Ella persistió / She Persisted de Chelsea Clinton y Alexandra Boiger, llega esta serie en Chapter Books sobre mujeres que sobresalieron, lucharon y se levantaron contra viento y marea, como Pura Belpré. Pura Belpré se mudó de Puerto Rico a la ciudad de Nueva York y se hizo bibliotecaria en un momento en que las bibliotecas estaban llenas de sólo libros en inglés. Pero ella sabía que a las personas hispanohablantes también les encantaría poder ir a las bibliotecas, por lo que persistió en implementar programas y libros bilingües en las bibliotecas de toda la ciudad. Ella también escribía sus propias historias y tradujo cuentos puertorriqueños al inglés para que pudieran llegar a un público más amplio. Pura Belpré cambió la manera en que las bibliotecas se acercaban a los lectores y les dio a las comunidades hispanas de toda la ciudad, y del país, la oportunidad de acercarse a los libros y formar ahí un tipo de comunidad que nunca antes habían tenido. En este libro biográfico escrito por la galardonada autora bestseller Meg Medina, los lectores aprenderán sobre la increíble vida de Pura Belpré y cómo ella persistió. ¡El libro incluye una introducción de Chelsea Clinton, ilustraciones en blanco y negro y una lista de maneras en que los lectores pueden seguir los pasos de Pura Belpré y así marcar la diferencia! ¡Y no te pierdas los demás libros de la serie She Persisted, con muchas otras mujeres que persistieron, como Coretta Scott King, Harriet Tubman, Sonia Sotomayor, Malala Yousafzai, Diana Taurasi y otras más!ENGLISH DESCRIPTION Inspired by the #1 New York Times bestseller She Persisted by Chelsea Clinton and Alexandra Boiger, a chapter book series about women who spoke up and rose up against the odds--including Pura Belpré!
Pura Belpré moved from Puerto Rico to New York City and became a librarian at a time when libraries were filled with only English language books. But she knew that Spanish speakers would love to make use of the libraries too, and so she persisted in implementing bilingual programming and offerings in libraries across the city. She also wrote stories of her own and translated Puerto Rican tales into English to bring them to wider audiences. She changed the way libraries reach readers and gave Spanish speakers across the city and the country the opportunity to read and find community in ways they never had before. In this chapter book biography by bestselling and award-winning author Meg Medina, readers learn about the amazing life of Pura Belpré--and how she persisted. Complete with an introduction from Chelsea Clinton, black-and-white illustrations throughout, and a list of ways that readers can follow in Pura Belpré's footsteps and make a difference! And don't miss out on the rest of the books in the She Persisted series, featuring so many more women who persisted, including Sonia Sotomayor, Diana Taurasi, Malala Yousafzai, and more!

Excellent value and has saved me from the sun!
Fit Type: Regular Fit, Color: White, Size: Large
I ordered this large mans shirt because it was 100% cotton and long sleeve. I am a woman and use it to protect myself from the sun walking my dog, very stiff at first, but comes out with several washes. I love the shirt!

NICE Shirt that SHRINKS!!
Fit Type: Regular Fit, Color: Blue, Size: X-Large
Loved this shirt right out of the package. Put a little steam pressing on it and it was perfect. Has a thicker softer feel than most casual dress shirts. Ordered XL with the "regular" fit and it could be worn tucked or out without it looking overly blousy. SADLY, after a first wash on cold and tumble dry low, and pulled it out early and it shrunk by almost a full size!!! The sleeves, length of shirt and overall fittage shrunk so that now it fits like a snug large. I've never had a shirt shrink like this, hence, the one star off. I would have given it 2 stars off, but the original quality of the shirt is nice, just beware of the shrinkage factor. Don't put it in the dryer at all, only air dry it. I'm tempted to reorder another but just then never put it in the dryer.

I am thoroughly impressed with this Amazon Essentials white shirt. For the price, the quality is outstanding. The fabric feels soft, breathable, and has a good weight to it
