Paloma's Song for Puerto Rico: A Diary from 1898 - Adriana Erin Rivera

Paloma's Song for Puerto Rico: A Diary from 1898

Created in collaboration with the Smithsonian Institution's National Museum of the American Latino, Nuestras Voces shares inspiring Latino stories. It is 1898, and twelve-year-old Paloma lives in Puerto Rico with her Papi, Mami, and little brother, Jorge. They are coffee farmers, and Paloma loves the chickens and fruit trees that she helps to care for. She also loves music--the song of the coquí frogs who sing her to sleep, and the melodies from Papi's tiple guitar. But Paloma's world begins to change when war arrives on Puerto Rico's shores. What will happen to their culture, the island? As Paloma and her family navigate changes they can't control, they hold tightly to each other and hope for a better future. In diary format, the Nuestras Voces series profiles inspiring characters and honors the joys, challenges, and outcomes of Latino experiences.
