Areli Es Una Dreamer (Areli Is a Dreamer Spanish Edition): Una Historia Real por Areli Morales, Beneficiaria de DACA

Areli Morales,Luisa Uribe

En esta edici n en espanol del primer album ilustrado escrito por una beneficiaria de DACA -una dreamer - Areli Morales narra su poderosa historia como inmigrante.

En la casa de la abuela -en las montanas de Mexico- los sabados estaban llenos de familiares y de mucho sol. Areli era buena jugando al escondite y aon mejor persiguiendo gallinas. Cuando Areli era s lo una bebe, su mama y su papa se mudaron a Nueva York con su hermano -Alex- en busca de una mejor vida para su familia. Cuando Areli entr a preescolar, enviaron a alguien por ella tambien.

Todo en Nueva York era diferente- grande, rapido y ruidoso. Areli casi no hablaba ingles y sus companeros la acusaban de ser ilegal. Pero con el paso del tiempo y lentamente, Areli se convirti en una neoyorquina … aon sin ser ciudadana estadounidense. -Aqui podria hacer lo que quisiera -Areli le dijo un dia al cielo citadino-. Algon dia lo lograre.

sta es una conmovedora historia -que evoca la de millones de inmigrantes que son parte integra de nuestro pais- acerca de una nina que vive en dos mundos, una nina cuya solicitud de DACA fue eventualmente aprobada y que ahora vive el sueno americano.

In the first picture book written by a DACA dreamer Areli Morales tells her own powerful and vibrant immigration story in this Spanish translation companion book.

When Areli was just a baby, her mama and papa moved from Mexico to New York with her brother, Alex, to make a better life for the family–and when she was in kindergarten, they sent for her, too.

Everything in New York was different. Gone were the Saturdays at Abuela’s house, filled with cousins and sunshine. Instead, things were busy and fast and noisy. Areli’s limited English came out wrong, and schoolmates accused her of being illegal. But time passed, and Areli slowly became a New Yorker–although not an American citizen. I could do anything here, Areli says one day to the city sky. Someday, I will.

This is a moving story–one that resonates with millions of immigrants who make up the fabric of our country–about one girl living in two worlds, a girl whose DACA application was eventually approved and who is now living her American dream.
