Program Description

Event Details

Monthly book discussions focused on real-world issues, led by librarian Nick. Earn 3 hours of community service by reading the book and participating—copies available at the Teen Desk.

Summary: Pulga, Chico, and Pequeña have no false illusions about the town they've grown up in and the dangers that surround them. Though their families--both biological and found--create a warm community for them, threats lurk around every corner. And when those threats become all too real, the three teens know they have no choice but to run: for the border, for the hope of freedom, and for their very lives.
