Where They Gather
Autor Teresa Rodrigues Ilustrat de Jamiel Lawen Limba Engleză Hardback – 26 feb 2026 – vârsta până la 8 ani
Roots take hold and settle in,
creeping far and free.
They stake their claim in barren ground—
a dream of what will be.
Here, they hope together.
A newly freed Black couple plant a pecan tree. The tree grows alongside each new generation of their family, weathering various seasons of change from the Jim Crow era to the Civil Rights period and into present day. Through difficult winters and the promise of spring, the tree continues to rise, mirroring the strength, resilience, and celebration of the family throughout time.

Notă biografică
Teresa Rodrigues is a histologist-turned-kid lit writer. She grew up on Merritt Island, Florida, where she spent much of her time reading and pouring her emotions into poems. Now, she spends her days in sunny south Florida, pouring her emotions into books. When she isn’t writing, you can find her sending numerous social media reels to her daughters (much to their dismay) and enjoying life as an empty nester with her husband. She’s an active member of SCBWI and works to promote children’s literacy through BAM! Festival, a nonprofit in South Florida.

Recenzii
"In moving, rhythmic text, Rodrigues uses the changing seasons to represent different phases of the couple’s lives. . . Law’s illustrations [are] primarily in earth tones, highlighting this family’s connection to the land. A tree the couple planted endures over time, standing as a testament to their resiliency."
"A Black family perseveres over generations. . . Law’s gouache illustrations depict characters primarily in greens and browns—an artistic choice that visually connects the family with their land. . . An uplifting story of family triumph amid turmoil."
