Requests:  0 Summary:  You can't really tell what time it is when you're in the freezer. Every year, thousands of migrant children and teens cross the U.S.-Mexico border. The journey is treacherous and sometimes deadly, but worth the risk for migrants who are escaping gang violence and poverty in their home countries. And for those refugees who do succeed? They face an immigration process that is as winding and multi-tiered as the journey that brought them here. In this book, award-winning Mexican author Juan Pablo Villalobos strings together the diverse experiences of eleven real migrant teenagers, offering readers a beginning road map to issues facing the region. These timely accounts of courage, sacrifice, and survival--including two fourteen-year-old girls forming a tenuous friendship as they wait in a frigid holding cell, a boy in Chicago beginning to craft his future while piecing together his past in El Salvador, and cousins learning to lift each other up through angry waters--offer a rare and invaluable window into the U.S.-Central American refugee crisis. In turns optimistic and heartbreaking, The Other Side balances the boundless hope at the center of immigration with the weight of its risks and repercussions. Here is a necessary read for young people on both sides of the issue.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library YA -- Nonfiction 305.23509 Vi Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kapolei Public Library YA -- Nonfiction 305.23509 Vi Checked In Add Copy to MyList Pahoa P/S Library YA -- Nonfiction 305.23509 Vi Checked In Add Copy to MyList Pearl City Public Library YA -- Nonfiction 305.23509 Vi Checked In Add Copy to MyList Wahiawa Public Library YA -- Nonfiction 305.23509 Vi Checked In Add Copy to MyList Waipahu Public Library YA -- Nonfiction 305.23509 Vi Checked In Add Copy to MyList
