SynopsisJosefina Montoya is an Hispanic girl growing up in northern New Mexico in 1924, just after the opening of the Santa Fe Trail. In Meet Josefina, you'll read about her life on the family rancho, or farm, and share in her delight when the trading caravan brings a wonderful surprise. In her other stories, you'll watch as Josefina faces charges - in her family and her country - with heart and hope.
I like these books because they colorfully illustrate how we are all immigrant Americans. Cultural and social issues are addressed to mark the likes and differences between groups. I highly recommend all the American Girl books. I think I have them all. Just picking up more copies for young friends.
