This book is straight out of today's headlines. What is it like to live as an undocumented in the United States? How does a family manage to hide in plain sight while still earning a living and building a new existence? Ana and Lucho immigrated to the United States from Puru to seek out a safer and better life for their family. While they are not afraid of hard work the obstacles placed in the way put strains on their personal relationships. Ana's struggles are the struggles of people living in extreme poverty with no protections. Ana more than anything wants to protect her family. Again and again Ana has to choose the path for moving forward and sometimes that involves choices that are difficult. I was pulled into the story and wanted this family to succeed. It did take me a bit longer to read because I looked up the Spanish phrases to be sure I had a full understanding of the story.
