Reviews

"The strength of award-winning Córdova's illustrations is in her use of vivid, beautiful colors and expression... Exposing children to this kind of book encourages a global awareness that can only serve them as they grow up in a world where issues such as Fair Trade become increasingly important." -- Foreword Reviews

"Colorful folk-art--style drawings in marker and gouache add an authenticity to this South American tale ... celebrating the benefits of fair trade and environmental consciousness." -- Kirkus Reviews

"Isabella, through the conceit of a school writing project, teaches readers about her Ecuadorian parents' fight against pesticides and for fair-trade status for their rose farm.... Córdova's fluid, vibrant-hued paintings enliven the presentation." -- School Library Journal
