"¡Jovita soñaba con usar pantalones! Odiaba las faldas amplias que su abuela la obligaba a usar. ¡Quería trepar al árbol de mezquite más alto de su rancho, montar a caballo y sentir que el viento le enroscaba el rostro en una sonrisa! Cuando su padre y sus hermanos se unieron a la Guerra Cristera para luchar por la libertad religiosa, Jovita también quiso ir. Como se lo prohibieron, desafió a su padre y a la sociedad, y encontró una forma inteligente de convertirse en una pionera revolucionaria: ¡usando pantalones! Esta asombrosa historia verídica poco conocida sobre una heroína mexicana cobra vida en el texto de su sobrina nieta Aida Salazar, ganadora del Premio Américas, y en las ilustraciones de Molly Mendoza, galardonada con el Premio Eisner." -- Proporcionada por la editorial.

"Jovita didn't want to cook and clean like her sisters, and she especially didn't want to wear the skirts her abuela gave her. She wanted to race her brothers and climb the tallest mesquite trees in Rancho Palos Blancos, ride horses, and wear pants! When her father and brothers joined the Cristeros War to fight for the right to practice religion, she wanted to help. She wasn't allowed to fight, but that didn't stop her from observing how her father strategized and familiarizing herself with the terrain. When tragedy struck, she did the only thing that felt right to her--cut her hair, donned a pair of pants, and continued the fight, commanding a battalion who followed her without question. Jovita Wore Pants is the story of a trailblazing revolutionary who fought for her freedom, told by her great niece, bestselling author Aida Salazar, and illustrated by Molly Mendoza." -- Provided by publisher. -- For grades 2-4. Spanish language.
