Synopsis

This buoyant and richly illustrated ABC picture book follows six Haitian children on their way to school—a Coretta Scott King Award winner!

Long before the sun even thinks of rising, the Haitian children run to school—over the hills, through the fields, across the city square. Under the bright morning sun, surrounded by the sounds of nature, the eager students journey through their nation’s hill and meadow regions to learn the letters, sounds, and words of their beautiful books at school.
