Jessica is a young Hispanic girl who lives with her family in the lower Rio Grande Valley in southern Texas on the US-Mexico border. Jessica is in good health. She is the youngest sibling. She has two older sisters. Through your support, she will be able to participate in a program that promotes love of reading, increases access to culturally appropriate bilingual books and engages parents in reading to children. For many children in the Valley, the books they receive are often the first books they have ever owned. She will also be able to participate in theme based fun-filled interactive activities that help build coping skills and resilience. Jessica is a caring and smart young girl. She is attending elementary school, and loves the color pink. She likes to watch the tv show and movies of Clifford the Big Red Dog. She likes to read anything to do with Dr. Suess books. She likes to make slime and draw.
