Un tributo a la vida y al legado extraordinario de Pura Belpr?, una aclamada narradora puertorrique?a, bibliotecaria y pionera de los cuentos biling?es. La abuela de Pura siempre tiene una historia que compartir. Canta Qui-qui-ri-qu?! para el Se?or Gallo, retumba Bor?m, Bor?m para el Se?or Zapo, y cuenta la historia de una hermosa cucaracha que se enamora de un rat?n. Pura abraza estas historias con la misma pasi?n con la que los coqu?es se aferran a las hojas verdes. Cuando Pura crece y se muda de Puerto Rico a Harlem, consisgue un trabajo en la biblioteca, donde se rodea de historias, pero todas est?n en ingl?s. " D?nde est?n el Se?or Gallo y el Ratoncito P?rez? D?nde est? Puerto Rico en esas estanter?as?" Pura decide compartir con los ni?os las historias de su tierra natal tanto en ingl?s como en espa?ol. Escrito con una prosa l?rica y acompa?ado de ilustraciones cautivadoras, Los cuentos de Pura Belpr? captura el esp?ritu exuberante y la pasi?n de Pura Belpr? una narradora c?lebre, autora y folclorista, as? como la primera bibliotecaria latina en la ciudad de Nueva York. Como pionera de la narraci?n biling?e, Pura dio la bienvenida a innumerables familias a la biblioteca, construy? puentes culturales en su comunidad y desafi? las normas al compartir historias que a?n no hab?an sido impresas en libros, al menos no hasta entonces. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION A lyrical, vibrant tribute to the amazing life and legacy of Pura Belpr?, a lauded storyteller, librarian, and pioneer of bilingual story times.
Pura's abuela always has a cuento to share. She crows Qui-qui-ri-qu?! for Se?or Gallo, Booms Borom, Borom for Se?or Zapo, and tells of a beautiful cockroach who loves a mouse. Pura clings to these stories like coqu?es cling to green leaves. When Pura grows up and moves from Puerto Rico to Harlem, she gets a job at the library, where she is surrounded by stories--but they're only in English. Where is Se?or Gallo? Where is P?rez the mouse? Where is Puerto Rico on these shelves? She decides to tell children the tales of her homeland in English and in Spanish. Lyrically written, with lively illustrations, Pura's Cuentos captures the exuberant spirit and passion of Pura Belpr? celebrated storyteller, author, folklorist, and the first Latina librarian in New York City. A pioneer of bilingual storytimes, she welcomed countless new families to the library, formed cultural bridges in her community, and broke the rules by telling stories that weren't printed in books--at least, not yet.
