Summary

Desde el amanecer hasta el atardecer, los agrícolas trabajan para llenar nuestros estómagos. Contada desde la perspectiva de un hijo orgulloso, esta historia sincera y bellamente ilustrada ilumina el sacrificio y las dificultades que un padre aguanta por su familia.

From dawn to dusk, through sunshine, rainfall, and everything in between, he works his smooth hands until they crack. He harvests plenty of gifts for everyone to enjoy in hope of a brighter future for his own--he is the backbone of our country. Beautifully illustrated with the gifted colors of Mother Earth and told from the perspective of a proud son, this heartfelt tale will take us on a journey through the hardships and tireless days of a field worker.
