For those who think the border fence was a great idea - read this book to gain perspective on just how hard the lives of those crossing the border REALLY is. For those already against the fence, this book will really hit home, with a mix of sadness, shock, and at times a giggle or two.

This book will move you to action, tears, and a sense of purpose well before the ending.   hide
