Established and familiar names are joined by many new young voices, and Pulitzer Prize-winning novelist Oscar Hijuelos has written the Introduction. The poets collected here illuminate the difficulty of straddling cultures, languages, and identities. They celebrate food, family, love, and triumph. In English, Spanish, and poetic jumbles of both, they tell us who they are, where they are, and what their hopes are
Editorial : From School Library Journal Starred Review. Grade 8 Up–As she did in Cool Salsa (Holt, 1994), Carlson assembles another impressive forum of poetic voices. In Spanish and English, the poets speak eloquently of themselves, how and where they live, their families, and their dreams for the future.

This book is about all the different theories of time travel. I love the line in her book that says so much: I am not my eating disorder. You can't copy and edit chapters to give you a piece that repeats that tough section over and over for practice.
With the CD, you get smaller pieces in each track and you can rip the CD to your PC and use any number of free tools to create a track that is the tough piece repeated several times so you can practice it along with the CD instructor.
So, instead of the CD/DVD version of grade 1, I suggest getting the two CD version of Grade 1, available on Amazon by searching for 9780786650200:
