Growing Up American by Rafael Polo
What I like about this story is the boy is transported from Cuba to his relatives house in NY where he lives with many others. Everybody has jobs, he has school. Takes you through his full life, when his parents arrive, they become naturalized citizens and then further. Love parts of how they didn't want to live off welfare like other immigrants. Really made a name for themselves and their families. Fascinating read. to hear from their side. Great read.
Received this review copy from the publisher and this is my honest opinion.
