Listen to What Students at Roseland University Prep Say About "Bless Me, Ultima"
Students at Roseland University Prep were given copies of "Bendiceme Ultima" ("Bless Me, Ultima) by Rudolfo Anaya to read as part of Big Read, Sonoma County. After reading the book some students volunteered to reflect on the themes, characters and writing style of the author. If you haven't read the book yet let these students be your motivation to pick up a copy today.
A special thank you to Ms. Langan's AP Spanish students for helping us spread the word about The Big Read.
