She lives with her mother and her grandmother. After their house burned down they had to move in with her aunt and uncle. her mother had saved up a lot of money to buy them a comfortable chair. When Rosa's family is growing due to the birth of her cousin, her grandmother wants to replace the chair but Rosa does not want to. She wants the chair to stay the same. This book would be good for teaching about families that live with extended families and symbolism through the use of the chair. it also discusses how some families have to face tragedies such as their house burning down and may have to deal with lower economic statuses. I would use it for a shared reading or read aloud in second or third grade. A nice continuation of a "Chair for my Mother." Finally a book with my name on it. Little Rosa is so excited about the birth of her new baby cousin. The baby will be born soon! As a matter of fact the baby will be born upstairs at her aunts house, She is so happy that her mother's chair will always stay in her family. A Chair for Always is a touching family story. One of the most important factors of this book, especially for children's literature, is the diversity it contains. Rosa has a single mother who works long hours. Many children, depending on the school district, will know this situation very well. It's important for children's books to have these family structures written about because it shows children that its not the "norm" but it is perfectly normal. Also, in one house Rosa and her mother live with her grandma, aunt, and uncle. This is again another family structure that shows children diversity in what the picture of a family looks like. Aside from the heartwarming story of Rosa's love for her family and the chair that incorporates it all the diversity shines through. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
