“Kids don’t often get a chance to help others outside their families in meaningful ways. This book may change that.” — Kirkus Reviews

¿PODEMOS AYUDAR? ¡Sí, pueden!

No importa si tienes ocho o dieciocho años: puedes ayudar a que tu comunidad sea un mejor lugar. Observa cómo los niños de este libro tejen gorros y bufandas para personas que no tienen suficiente ropa de abrigo, empacan comida caliente para entregársela a quienes no pueden salir de sus casas, adiestran perros de asistencia para personas con discapacidades, mantienen limpios los caminos, sirven de tutores a niños más pequeños, y colaboran de muchas otras maneras.


In one after-school program, middle-school students mentor and tutor younger children. Via a special partnership, schoolchildren help professionals train assistance dogs for people with disabilities. At a community farm, families plant, grow, and harvest produce for soup kitchens and charities. Real kids make a real difference in their communities in this vibrantly photographed chronicle by George Ancona.
