Editorial Reviews
From Booklist
Gr. 7^-10. Morey and Dunn have written an interesting and useful collective biography that contains 14 12-to 14-page chapters, each featuring an accomplished American man or woman of Hispanic heritage, from a variety of professions. Included are politicians (Ileana Ros-Lehtinen, Federico Pena), scientists and physicians (Antonia Novello, Ellen Ochoa), artists and performers (Gloria Estefan, Andy Garcia, Carolina Herrera, Lourdes Lopez, Paul Rodriguez), athletes (Gigi Fernandez, Felipe Alou), and others. Illustrated with black-and-white photos, the prose is clear, and the book's format easily lends itself to students' biographical research. Selected bibliography for further reading MerriMonks
