Multi-Cultural Assembly Tour

February and March 2010

By José Cruz Gonzáles
Based on the book by Pat Mora

Unable to read English, Tomás, a migrant boy, is terrified of school.  When his family heads North for the harvest, he finds a refuge that may help ease his fears - the library.  The compassionate Library Lady introduces Tomás to the fun and magic found in the pages of a good book.
 
First Stage is pleased to continue its tradition of providing a Multi-Cultural School Assembly Tour for area schools with TOMÁS AND THE LIBRARY LADY.  This popular program is designed to aid educators in providing arts experiences for their students, as well as to provide a forum for multi-cultural awareness.  Past tours have celebrated African-American, Native American, Latino, Hmong, German American, Irish American and Jewish cultures.

Note: TOMÁS AND THE LIBRARY LADY is most suitable for lower elementary school students and teachers.
