Me Llama Pablo
By Kathleen W. Redman
  

1     "Buenos dias! Me llama Pablo."
 
2     "Boys and girls, this is Pablo," Mr. Miles said. "He is in third grade at our school."
 
3     "Hi, Pablo," the children said. "Why is Pablo in our class today?"
 
4     "Pablo came to tell us about coming to our country. We are going to learn about immigration. Pablo's story will help us," Mr. Miles explained.
 
5     "Have you been here a long time? Do you speak English? How old are you? How old were you when you came here? Are your parents here? How did you get here?" the children asked.
 
6     "Wait, slow down," Mr. Miles laughed. "Pablo will answer your questions. Just give him a chance!"
 
7     "I came to this country with my father, my mother, and my little sister," Pablo said. "I was only three years old. I spoke only Spanish then. Now I can speak English, too."
 
8     "What country are you from?" Suri asked.
