A Movie in My Pillow/Una pelicula en mi almohada: Poems/Poemas

A young boy with two homelands and a delightful sense of wonder comes to life in Jorge Arguetaâ€™s first collection of poems for children. Young Jorgito lives in San Franciscoâ€™s Mission District, but he hasnâ€™t forgotten his native El Salvador. He recalls the volcanoes, the tasty cornmeal pupusas, and his grandmotherâ€™s stories. As he changes from timid newcomer to seasoned city dweller, Jorgitoâ€™s memories and new adventures form a patchwork of dreams Â— the movie in his pillow Â— that is perfectly suited to his new bicultural identity.
