Abuela's Weave (Revised)

Abuela's Weave tells the story of young Esperanza and her grandmother, who work together weaving traditional Mayan tapestries to sell at the market in Guatemala. When Abuela's birthmark causes her to worry about scaring customers away, Esperanza must find the courage to sell their beautiful work on her own. This book is an excellent choice for students because it celebrates cultural pride, family bonds, and personal resilience, while introducing them to the rich traditions of Guatemalan culture.
