Summary:
"Ahora para jóvenes lectores, la periodista ganadora de cuatro premios Emmy y presentadora de Latino USA de NPR, María Hinojosa, cuenta la historia de la inmigración en los Estados Unidos a través de las experiencias de su familia y décadas de hacer reportajes, con lo cual crea un retrato de un país en crisis. María Hinojosa es una periodista ganadora de premios Emmy y la primera latina en fundar una redacción independiente sin fines de lucro en los Estados Unidos. Pero, antes de todo eso, fue una niña con una gran melena y sueños aún más grandes. Nacida en México y criada en el vibrante barrio de Hyde Park, en Chicago, María siempre buscó la forma de comprender mejor el mundo que la rodeaba... y la manera de encajar en él. En este libro combina historias de su vida, desde la imborrable experiencia de pertenecer a una familia de inmigrantes hasta el momento en que escuchó su propia voz en radio nacional por primera vez, ofreciendo sus observaciones y percepciones sobre la larga y complicada relación entre los Estados Unidos y sus inmigrantes. Divertida, franca y colmada de sabiduría, la historia de María es una que querrás leer una y otra vez, y su voz te inspirará a encontrar la tuya"--Amazon.
"In her New York Times bestselling adult memoir, Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Maria Hinojosa explored the history of immigration in the United States through the lens of her own life story. Now Hinojosa has written a completely new book for young readers that interweaves the untold narrative of her youth with her perspectives about how the next generation can shape today's America. In a warm, inviting voice that gives the feel of an older sister dispensing anecdotes and wisdom, Hinojosa takes readers from her birth in Mexico to her family's journey to Chicago and through her school years, full of adventures, friendships, questions, and class plays that inspired her love of performance. Throughout, she reveals nuggets of history and encourages young readers to ask tough questions about this country's attitudes toward immigration and about their own identities. Like Stamped, this book offers an essential perspective on America's complex history with race and nationality, and readers will want to return to it again and again"-- Provided by publisher.
