Young Adult | Non-Fiction Biography
Adapted for young people, this edition of
Enrique’s Journey is written by Sonia Nazario
and based on the adult book of the same name. It is the true
story of Enrique, a teenager from Honduras, who sets out on
a journey, braving hardship and peril, to find his mother,
who had no choice but to leave him when he was a child and
go to the United States in search of work. Enrique’s story
will bring to light the daily struggles of migrants, legal
and otherwise, and the complicated choices they face simply
trying to survive and provide for the basic needs of their
families. The issues seamlessly interwoven into this
gripping nonfiction work for young people are perfect for
common core discussion. Includes an 8-page photo insert,
as well as an epilogue that describes what has happened to
Enrique and his family since the adult edition was
published.
