We are all trying to find ourselves, and Chela is no different, except she straddles two governments, two geographic regions, and two cultures under the United States sovereignty during a time when the Panama Canal was much disputed. It is through her eyes we learn of this pseudo-American lifestyle. Like Hong Kong, which was turned over to China, the Panama Canal was turned over to the Panamanians. What was it like for her?
The series, “Brown Girl, Brown Girl, Hasn’t Anyone,” has two versions: an illustrated version and a memoir. The illustrated version can be used with the reluctant learner and/or for workshops. The memoir can be used to teach how to write memoirs, because it goes deeper into her life. “Brown Girl, Brown Girl, Hasn’t Anyone,” is scaffolded because it, too, straddles across different age groups and different learning styles. Immigration and geography are two areas of disciplines that will ensure compassion and empathy all the while deepening an understanding of geopolitics. 978-1788305266

Beautiful Virginia Beach stretches almost five miles and is flanked by the Atlantic Ocean and sprawling residential hotels. Chela got up close and personal on her daily walks with many of its residents, their dogs, and their habits. Bench press-ers, surfers, and dog walkers, runners, sailors and tankers, bikers, skaters, and people watchers are a sight much to admire. While Virginia Beach is a destination site, “Ruff, Ruff on Virginia Beach” is a picture book that can be used alongside teaching parts of speech, namely, adjectives and adverbs.
