Os Paquettes administram uma fazenda de gado leiteiro em Vermont, mas correm o risco de perder a fazenda após o acidente de seu pai. A família Cruz é do México e imigrou para os Estados Unidos em busca de uma vida melhor. A história é contada através dos olhos de dois garotos de 11 anos, Tyler Paquette e Mari Cruz. Este livro importante ajuda os alunos a construir uma compreensão mais profunda da imigração e dos trabalhadores migrantes e como a amizade pode quebrar estereótipos e construir pontes para um mundo melhor.
Os alunos podem traçar os personagens de um livro e escrever sobre os traços físicos / de personalidade de cada personagem, suas interações com os outros e os desafios que enfrentam.
