Curse of the ChupaCabra

(4) YA Fascinated by the Latin American legend of the ChupaCabra or "goat sucker," Professor Rosa Medina investigates reported attacks of the monster in Mexico. What she uncovers is that the beast's destruction is tied to drug trafficking. Anaya compares the ChupaCabra's rampage to the effects of drugs on the youth of Los Angeles, a clever idea didactically expressed.
