Going Home

Eve Bunting; David Diaz

Description:         Carlos and his two sisters are not sure why Mama sparkles with excitement when she says "We are going home Carlos... Home is here, but it is there too".  They begin to understand during Christmas vacation when they visit the small Mexican village their grandparents and cousins still live in.  Carlos and his sisters begin to appreciate the magic of Mexico and the meaning of opportunity and love as they watch the magic of their parents dancing in a deserted street in the village of La Perla.  The book is well illustrated and provides insight on the difficult choices and issues faced by families caught between two cultures.   Condition: new hardback with small remainder mark
