Gaelle is a sweet, shy six year old from the village of Galette Chambon. She lives with her mother, six sisters, and two brothers. Her mother works as a sharecropper in a local garden picking beans. She gets to keep some of the produce to sell on her own at a local market when she is able to go. The danger in the village has made it very hard for her to go sell at market. Her husband lost his life trying to defend their area of the village against gang violence last year. Losing her husband has put a huge strain on Gaelle’s mother trying to provide for eight children on her own. It would be a huge relief to her if Gaelle were in school so she could be educated and eat every day. Gaelle loves to play tic-tac-toe and she believes that no one in her family can beat her. She has a good strategy. Her favorite thing about school is coloring beautiful pictures with crayons. When she grows up, she wants to become a nurse.
