La Frontera: El viaje con papá / My Journey with Papa

Based on a true story! Join a young boy and his father on an arduous journey from Mexico to the United States in the 1980s to find a new life. They’ll need all the courage they can muster to safely cross the border—la frontera—and to make a home for themselves in a new land.

Inspired by the childhood immigration experience of co-author Alfredo Alva, this story of perseverance is told in both Spanish and English to empower language-learning. Includes 4 pages of endnotes that unpack facts about Alfredo’s story, and other stories like his, and  borders around the world to help parents and educators talk with children about immigration, resilience, empathy and belonging.

Also available in hardcover.
