Synopsis
"'La frontera'...I heard it for the first time back in the late 1940s when Papa and Mama told me and Roberto, my older brother, that someday we would take a long trip north, cross la frontera, enter California, and leave our poverty behind." So begins this honest and powerful account of a family's journey to the fields of California -- to a life of constant moving, from strawberry fields to cotton fields, from tent cities to one-room shacks, from picking grapes to topping carrots and thinning lettuce. Seen through the eyes of a boy who longs for an education and the right to call one palce home, this is a story of survival, faith, and hope. It is a journey that will open readers' hearts and minds., 'La frontera'...I heard it for the first time back in the late 1940s when Papa and Mama told me and Roberto, my older brother, that someday we would take a long trip north, cross la frontera, enter California, and leave our poverty behind.

  • amazing story!!!

    i likes this book alot because its real. in the book...he speaks of his past life and how him and his family had to struggle to live. they went through so much just to make a living and have thier family together. they worked very hard and didnt even have a stable home. most of the time they lived in either cabins, garages, or tents. i like this book because unlike others...he spoke about every detail.
