Laminated children's drawing consisting of a piece of beige legal paper mounted on a piece of blue construction paper. The top of the composition contains two covered structures, one is pink with a black roof and the other is yellow and green with a brown and blue roof. Below these structures is a scene involving a female figure in a blue dress feeding four yellow hens. One of the hens is much larger than the others. Below this scene, an inscription in black ink reads "Cuando mi madre cuidaba sas gallinas en el Salvador poreso lo Recuerdo - mi nombre es Alejandrina Reyes mi edades Banos - mi direcsion es Campumento #6 mesa grande". An English translation of this inscription has been word processed and taped to the bottom of the laminated paper. The translation reads "When my mother used to take care of the hends in El Salvador. That is what I remember. My name is Alyandrina Reyes. My age is 13 years and my address Camp 6 Mesa Grande."
