Enrique's Journey: The True Story of a Boy Determined to Reunite with His Mother

(4) YA This is a harrowing story of the dangers faced by one teenager when he traveled illegally from Honduras to the U.S. to be with his immigrant mother. Enrique's story mirrors that of many young undocumented Latinos; the narrative graphically depicts violence and brutality. Originally a Pulitzer Prize–winning series of newspaper articles, this adaptation of Nazario's adult book is sometimes repetitious but always heartbreaking.
