When her father does not return from the United States as promised, a Mexican girl convinces her mother that they should go to look for him. They soon learn what it means to be “illegal.” An excellent job of sharing what being an illegal alien in the US is like for those who come illegally to the US for good reasons. So many who cross our border only want to share the dream - we need to really address our border situation. The criminals should not be allowed in, but the innocent need to have a better way to become citizens. FROM AMAZON: Nora is on a desperate journey far away from home. When her father leaves their beloved Mexico in search of work, Nora stays behind. She fights to make sense of her loss while living in poverty—in wait of her father’s return and a better day. When the letters and money stop coming, Nora decides that she and her mother must look for him in Texas. After a frightening experience crossing the border, the two are all alone in a strange place. Nora must find the strength to survive while aching for small comforts: friends, a new school, and her quinceañera. Some people get annoyed with the average book with a happy ending, so here’s one that’s not. A girl about our age (9th grade) has to live life without her father because he had to go the U.S. to make money. Her mother and herself leave their small town in Cedula, Mexico in search for her father. You would never imagine the obstacles they come a crossed. I choses this book because I liked the title just simple and doesn’t give much away. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
