Small Room, Big Dreams: The Journey of Juli�n and Joaquin Castro
De (autor): Monica Brown
An informative, inspirational picture book biography about twins Juli�n and Joaquin Castro, who rose from poverty to become leaders for positive change in America.
The story of political powerhouse twins Juli�n and Joaquin Castro began in the small room that they shared with their grandmother Victoriana in San Antonio, Texas. Victoriana crossed the border from Mexico into Texas as a six-year-old orphan, marking the start of the family's American journey. Her daughter Rosie, Juli�n and Joaquin's mom, was an activist who helped the barrio through local government.
The strong women in their family inspired the twins to get involved in politics. Juli�n and Joaquin have been working at the local, state, and national level--as a former presidential candidate, mayor and member of President Obama's Cabinet, and a U.S. Congressman, respectively--to make the country a better place for everyone.
Acclaimed author Monica Brown and illustrator Mirelle Ortega depict the Castros' political and personal accomplishments in this must-read picture book biography.
Also available in a Spanish edition: Peque�a habitaci�n, grandes sue�os.
