Me llamo Gabito. La vida de Gabriel García Márquez / My Name is Gabito. The Life of Gabriel García Márquez
My Name is Gabito, by Monica Brown, is a 2007-2008 Americas Award Commended Title. It is a story about the life of the distinguished Nobel Prize winner for literature, Gabriel Garcia Marquez. This book begins when "Gabito" is a little boy in his home town of Aracataca, Colombia. The reader is quickly immersed into Gabito's wild imagination and dreams. As the story continues the reader learns about a special person in Gabito's life who helped influence his love of words. The story ends when Gabito grows up to be "the great storyteller, read by millions." This text is eloquently written with words that capture Gabito's vivid imagination. The illustrations are full of color, movement, and beauty, bringing the author's words to life. I would recommend this book for grades 1-4. It could be used in the classroom as part of an author or creative writing unit, or as a biographical study of a famous person. This text also won the ALA 2008 Pura Belpre Honor Award.
