librarybonanza 's review for:
Child of the Flower-Song People: Luz Jiménez, Daughter of the Nahua
by Gloria Amescua
Age: 1st grade-3rd grade
Identity: Nahua (Aztec) model and teacher
Identity, author: Mexican American
Identity, illustrator: Mexican and American
Location: Mexico (Milpa Alta and Mexico City)
Nonfiction: 1897-1965
A celebratory representation of a unique Indigenous Nahua woman that never let go of her culture and, instead, shared it with the world and revived it in the classroom. Tonatiuh's distinct illustrations are full of emotion and movement. He also reinterprets several pieces of art throughout the book and weaves them into the plot of the story. A lovely contribution to the illustrated biographies section.
