Students will improve their understanding of themes, figurative language, character quirks, development, descriptions, and motivations which impact not only that specific character but also other characters and the reader.   Students will grow through the reading of the book and the discussions regarding the treatment of some immigrants to the United States and what it means to be undocumented. Certainly the power of this book is in the discussions and depth of topic that is presented.  You will be rooting for the main characters to come out of difficult situations in a positive manner.  Learners will enjoy practicing discussion skills in a safe, environment in which all class members are treated with respect and kindness by all participants.

Including two years proudly teaching on the Outschool format, this is my 36 year of teaching and I am confident that with understanding, sensitivity, empathy, and teaching on this topic as it pertains to many historical situations, I have the training and knowledge to teach this book.  I always bring any sensitive information that might come up in class directly to the adult of the learner.  Just some of the books that I have recently taught that have parallel themes include Front Desk, Refugee, Prisoner B-3097, The Remarkable Journey of Coyote Sunrise and Nowhere Boy.
