Book Reviews of The Tree Is Older Than You Are: A Bilingual Gathering of Poems & Stories from Mex

Book Review: A Keeper
Summary: 4 Stars

I made copies of some of the poems to put on the overhead for my classroom of middle school students. Some of my Spanish speakers "volunteered" (at my urging) to read aloud, and all the kids loved it! The art selections are appropriate and the readability level is good for this age (even in the Spanish) A great addition to any teacher's bookshelf.
