By: Angela Burke Kunkel | Illustrator: Paola EscobarA gorgeous and inspiring picture book based on the life of José Alberto Gutiérrez, a garbage collector in Bogotá, Colombia who started a library with a single discarded book found on his route.
In the city of Bogata, in the barrio of La Nueva Gloria, there live two Joses. One is a boy who dreams of Saturdays-- that's the day he gets to visit Paradise, the library. The second Jose is a garbage collector. From dusk until dawn, he scans the sidewalks as he drives, squinting in the dim light, searching household trash for hidden treasure . . . books! Some are stacked in neat piles, as if waiting for José́. Others take a bit more digging. Ever since he found his first book, Anna Karenina, years earlier, he's been collecting books--thick ones and thin ones, worn ones and almost new ones-- to add to the collection in his home. And on Saturdays, kids like little Jose run to the steps of Paradise to discover a world filled with books and wonder.
With an evocative text by a debut author, and rich, stunning illustrations from an up-and-coming Colombian illustrator, here is a celebration of perseverance, community, and the power of books.

A great sport visor
Size: One Size, Color: (100) White / White / Reflective
My head is small so a lot of visors don’t fit because of the Velcro. This is perfect and the ability to wet it for coolness is great. Love it for tennis.

Great for running
Size: One Size, Color: (001) Black / Black / Reflective
Hat fits well and worked great for my marathon. The Velcro doesn’t pull on my hair.

Cute and comfortable, though a little big without tightening a bit
Size: One Size, Color: (100) White / White / Reflective
Love the bright color and material. It fits a little big at first but has the ability to tighten quite a bit so it should be fine like it is for me. I just have a smaller head. It has great coverage. Feels comfortable as well.

Perfect fit
Size: One Size, Color: (001) Black / Black / Reflective
I ordered this to wear during my upcoming vacation. It will shade my face from direct sunlight. I initially wished the brim was just a tad bit shorter but then I realize the current brim size will serve the purpose; that being the reason why it was purchased.
