cover César
¡Sí, Se Puede! Yes, We Can!

by Carmen T. Bernier-Grand, illustrated by David Díaz

"This powerful biography in poems relates incidents in the life of César Chávez with insight and a sense of wonder. Diaz's softly beautiful and illuminating illustrations add much to this already rich celebration of César's life and legacy." —Kirkus Reviews

"Children will learn about Chávez, but, more importantly, they will learn the important lessons he taught." —School Library Journal, starred review

"Expect increasing demand for material on Chávez and the United Farm Workers as more states launch official celebrations of César Chávez Day." —Booklist
