Latino/a Immigrant Children's Drawings and Writings
Soto, Lourdes Diaz; Garza, Irene
Contemporary Issues in Early Childhood, v12 n2 p118-133 2011
This article shares children's drawings and writings reflecting immigration border-crossing experiences in south Texas, USA. The authors present the children's drawings as well as their narratives, relying on the work of Robert Coles and the authors' own intuitive Latina/Xicana lenses. The authors' intent is to pursue the possibility of future inquiry with ameliorative intentions for increasing numbers of young immigrant children. (Contains 4 notes and 14 figures.)
