El Sue

5,The inspiring story of Do?a Fela, an enterprising woman who broke barriers and stopped at nothing to make the island of Puerto Rico a better home for all. Though she was born before women on her island were allowed to vote, Felisa Rinc?n de Gautier did not let that stop her from becoming the first female mayor of San Juan, Puerto Rico, in 1946. Easily spotted on the streets of San Juan by her flair and the jasmine flowers braided into her hair, she radiated style and grace. Do?a Fela, as she affectionately came to be called, loved her city. Do?a Fela was always ready to listen to problems and find solutions. With determination and resilience, she brought lasting change to the island. Do?a Fela's inspiring story as a visionary leader is brought to life on the page through stunning paintings that evoke the vibrant colors and culture of Puerto Rico.
