(2) 4-6 Twelve tales based on true events are appended with explanatory notes and citations of the articles that informed them. The deliberate voice and close focus on each fictionalized protagonist turns each headline into a relatable story. Intricate mixed-media character portraits by the author, purposely unfinished, accompany the stories. An intimate and varied look into what it's like to be young and Latino in the U.S. today. Glos.
