2. Tomás and the Library Lady

Unable to read English, Tomás, a migrant boy, is terrified of school. When his family heads North for the harvest, he finds a refuge that may help ease his fears—the library. The compassionate Library Lady introduces Tomás to the fun and magic found in the pages of a good book. Based on the inspiring true story of Mexican-American author and educator Tomás Rivera, this inspirational performance suggests what libraries—and education—can make possible.
