Overview

Una mirada poderosa y conmovedora a un momento de la historia estadounidense, de la mano de la maestra del relato Patricia Polacco, autora de Gracias, Sr. Falker.

Cuando Sheldon Russell Curtis le contó esta historia a su hija, Rosa, ella guardó cada palabra en su corazón y la volvió a contar muchas veces.

La contaré con las propias palabras de Sheldon, tan fielmente como pueda.

Él resultó herido en una feroz batalla y fue dado por muerto en un pastizal en algún lugar de Georgia, donde Pinkus lo encontró. Pinkus tenía la piel del color de la caoba pulida y vestía los colores de la Unión, al igual que el chico herido, y lo recogió del campo y lo llevó a donde vivía la madre del soldado negro, Moe Moe Bay. Ella tenía manos suaves y delicadas y cuidó de él y de su Pink.

Pero los dos chicos la ponían en peligro, ¡dos soldados de la Unión en territorio confederado! Tenían que volver con sus tropas. Asustados e inseguros, los chicos se enfrentaban a una difícil decisión, y entonces llegaron las tropas confederadas en busca de saqueos.

En esta historia de la Guerra Civil, transmitida del bisabuelo a la abuela, al hijo y finalmente a la propia autora y artista, Patricia Polacco celebra una vez más la humanidad compartida de los pueblos de este mundo.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

A powerful and heartwarming look at a moment in American history–from master storyteller Patricia Polacco, author of Thank You, Mr. Falker.

When Sheldon Russell Curtis told this story to his daughter, Rosa, she kept every word in her heart and was to retell it many times.

I will tell it in Sheldon’s own words as nearly as I can.

He was wounded in a fierce battle and left for dead in a pasture somewhere in Georgia when Pinkus found him. Pinkus’ skin was the color of polished mahogany, and he was flying Union colors like the wounded boy, and he picked him up out of the field and brought him to where the black soldier’s mother, Moe Moe Bay, lived. She had soft, gentle hands and cared for him and her Pink.
But the two boys were putting her in danger, two Union soldiers in Confederate territory! They had to get back to their outfits. Scared and uncertain, the boys were faced with a hard decision, and then marauding Confederate troops rode in.

In this Civil War story passed from great-grandfather to grandmother, to son, and finally to the author-artist herself, Patricia Polacco once again celebrates the shared humanity of the peoples of this world.
