Snow Pants for Isabella is Debra R. Sanchez’s second bi-lingual (English/Spanish) book for young people. Snow Pants for Isabella tackles the issues of gender stereotyping, peer pressure, and individuality as Isabella and her mother attempt to buy new snow pants that fit both Isabella’s body and her self-concept. This simple story delivers a profound yet subtle message to both young women and their parents, a message that is supported and enhanced by the illustration of Cassidy N. Bodnar. I recommend this volume for everyone’s daughters, granddaughters, and nieces.
