Rainbow Weaver/Tejedora del arcoíris

Illustrated by:
Rainbow Weaver

Ixchel wants to follow in the long tradition of weaving on backstrap looms, just as her mother, grandmother, and most Mayan women have done for more than two thousand years. But Ixchel's mother is too busy preparing her weavings for market. If they bring a good price, they will have money to pay for Ixchel's school and books. And besides, there is not enough extra thread for Ixchel to practice with. Can Ixchel find a way to make her dream come true?
