Description
Efrén Nava's Amá is his Superwoman--or Soperwoman, named after the delicious Mexican sopes her mother often prepares. Both Amá and Apá work hard all day to provide for the family, making sure Efrén and his younger siblings Max and Mía feel safe and loved.
But when Efrén's worst nightmare comes true one day, his mother is deported across the border to Tijuana, México. Now more than ever, Efrén must channel his inner Soperboy to help take care of and try to reunite his family.
A glossary of Spanish words is included in the back of the book, adding depth and authenticity to this powerful story about a young boy's journey through immigration and family love.
