Violence: War/Harsh Realities of War

A stirring picture book biography of one of Latin America's most beloved singers and political activists, Mercedes Sosa.



Written and illustrated by Aixa Pérez-Prado, this is the powerful biography of Argentinean folksinger and activist Mercedes Sosa. Affectionately known as La Negra, Mercedes used her musical talents and powerful voice to speak out against poverty and inequality in her home country. In the face of a cruel dictatorship, Mercedes refused to be silenced. She bravely stepped on stage to lend a "voice to the voiceless" with uplifting songs of empathy and empowerment. Her unforgettable music and messages of hope continue to resonate with people across the world to this day.



Afterword, with photographs. Bibliography. Full-color illustrations were created using digital collage.
