Illustrated by
Lulu Delacre.
A fictional girl introduces readers to the very real Pura Belpré, pioneer of services to Spanish-speakers at the New York Public Library in the 1930s. Like Belpré's story hours, the text is in both English and Spanish; the story has a worthy subject, but the telling is labored. Gently lined paintings bring tropical color to the frosty New York streets. Glos.
