Why are young people leaving their country to walk to the USA to are seeking for a new, protected home? Over 100,000 such children have left Central The us. This book of poetry helps us to remember why and what it is like to be them.

This powerful book by award-winning Salvadoran poet Jorge Argueta describes the terrible process that leads young people to undertake the extreme hardships and risks involved in the journey to what they hope will be a new life of safety and opportunity. A refugee from El Salvador’s war in the eighties, Argueta was once born to provide an explanation for the tragic choice confronting young Central Americans today who are saying goodbye to everything they know because they fear for their lives.
