(3) 4-6 Julian's parents send him and his brothers away from Havana's violence to Miami as part of Operation Pedro Pan. Unfortunately, there the boys are initiated into a culture of bullies and gangs. In this coming-of-age story based on Flores-Galbis's own experiences, readers get an authentic glimpse of the struggles of children living on their own and far from their homeland.
