We need books to break open our hearts, so that we might feel more deeply, so that we might be more human in these unkind times. This is a book doing work of the spirit in a time of darkness. Sandra Cisneros, author of The House on Mango Street
Efr n Navas Am is his Superwomanor Soperwoman, named after the delicious Mexican sopes his mother often prepares. Both Am and Ap work hard all day to provide for the family, making sure Efr n and his younger siblings Max and M a feel safe and loved.
But Efr n worries about his parents; although hes American-born, his parents are undocumented. His worst nightmare comes true one day when Am doesnt return from work and is deported across the border to Tijuana, M xico.
Now more than ever, Efr n must channel his inner Soperboy to help take care of and try to reunite his family.
A glossary of Spanish words is included in the back of the book.
