Abstract: Fabiola Cabeza de Baca was the first Hispanic home extension agent in New Mexico, where she worked for the agricultural extension service from 1929 to 1959. This thesis, in the form of a Spanish and English bilingual picture book, describes the work that Fabiola did as a home extension agent in New Mexico. This picture book, designed for students in fourth through sixth grade, focuses on the historical theme of the tension between cultural tradition and scientific and technological advancement and is intended to serve as an instructional resource for upper-elementary school teachers. *Includes CD.
