Simeon and Sula's First Day of School and The Happiest Day for Simeon and Sula share the joys and struggles of a brother and sister who live in Tanzania Africa.  Waking up before the sun is up to begin chores for the family and walking miles to get water is unfamiliar to most who live in developed nations.  Their hope to attend school one day is shared throughout Pamela Alarcon's books The Happiest Day and Simeon and Sula's First Day of School.  To be able to wear a school uniform and walk with shoes on their feet seems like a dream  Their dream becomes reality with the help of one person who set out to be their voice across the world.  Enjoy the excitement as Simeon and Sula hear some wonderful news that help is on the way!  

These books were written with love and compassion for children and adults alike.  Author Pamela Alarcon, knew that most will never get to walk on the dirt path's of Tanzania Africa and get to experience a daily journey for a child to go to school.  Lack of basic necessities, paved roads, transportation and a way to earn a living presented a struggle that most would not understand. Her books will help the reader get a first hand picture that not everyone lives the way we do!  Share these books with your children and grandchildren.  This will help plant a seed of compassion that may blossom just like it did for Ms. Alarcon as well.
