Gabriela Mistral loved words and sounds and stories. Born in Chile, she would grow to become the first Nobel Prize-winning Latina woman in the world. As a poet and a teacher, she inspired children across many countries to let their voices be heard.

This beautifully crafted story, where words literally come to life, is told with the rhythm and melody of a poem. The second in Luna Rising's bilingual storybook biography series, My Name is Gabriela / Me llamo Gabriela is a beautiful tribute to a woman who taught us the power of words and the importance of following our dreams. The story of Gabriela Mistral will continue to inspire children everywhere.

A Gabriela Mistral le encantaban las palabras, los sonidos y los cuentos. Nació en Chile y llegó a ser la primera mujer latina que ganara un Premio Nobel. Como poeta y como maestra, inspiró a niños de muchos países a expresar lo que pensaban.

Este cuento, hermosamente desarrollado, donde las palabras literalmente adquieren vida, se narra con el ritmo y la melodía de un poema. Segundo en la serie de libros de cuentos biográficos bilingües de Luna Rising, My Name is Gabriela / Me llamo Gabriela es un hermoso homenaje a una mujer que nos enseñó el poder de las palabras y la importancia de seguir nuestros sueños. La historia de Gabriela Mistral seguirá inspirando a niños en todo el mundo.
