A graphic memoir of migrant labor, schooling, and home

This graphic-novel adaptation frames a Mexican family’s move to California through a young boy’s perspective. The family’s work in the fields brings physically demanding labor and repeated moves from household to household, while the boy’s desire for an education and a permanent home gives the account its central tension. By placing family migration alongside the daily realities of agricultural work, the book presents questions of belonging, stability, and opportunity in a visual memoir format.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Readers interested in graphic memoirs grounded in family history
