In this book, Julissa tells her story about what it is like to be an immigrant in America, not just in the past but in today’s time. It shows that these people can be a neighbor, a friend or even a family member but that they are still people we love and care about. This could be useful as a class book because it could be used as an eye-opener for students to be more considerate of what their classmates may be going through but do not feel they are able to talk about. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña

HTML:A remarkable true story from social justice advocate and national bestselling author Julissa Arce about her journey to belong in America while growing up undocumented in Texas. Born in the picturesque town of Taxco, Mexico, Julissa Arce was left behind for months at a time with her two sisters, a nanny, and her grandma while her parents worked tirelessly in America in hopes of building a home and providing a better life for their children. That is, until her parents brought Julissa to Texas to live with them. From then on, Julissa secretly lived as an undocumented immigrant, went on to become a scholarship winner and an honors college graduate, and climbed the ladder to become a vice president at Goldman Sachs. This moving, at times heartbreaking, but always inspiring story will show young readers that anything is possible. Julissa's story provides a deep look into the little-understood world of a new generation of undocumented immigrants in the United States todayâ??kids who live next door, sit next to you in class, or may even be one of your best frien No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |

Julissa tells her story beautifully and narrates it well - highly recommended.
Now it's time for Congress to be bipartisan and clean up this mess. As long as we play the illegal immigration game everyone is losing, but none more than those coming in illegally. ( )
