A story of the times. José and his family live in a small town in the department of Sacatepéquez, Guatemala. Their life, which is simple and good, becomes challenging when their earnings become insufficient to maintain the family. Concerned for the welfare of his family whom he loves, José makes the difficult decision to make his way to the United States in search of work opportunities. Based on a story told to the author, this book recounts José's journey north as well as examines the effect of his absence on the family he leaves behind.Readers learn facets of Guatemalan culture through entry level vocabulary and grammar.Teachers: depending on your students this can be a level 1 or a level 2 book.

Jennifer Degenhardt taught middle and high school Spanish for 24 years. She recently decided to combine her language skills with those of storytelling, specifically involving kids and culture. Her books highlight cultural, social, economic and political themes necessary for continued conversation, both in the classroom and outside. She hopes her stories will provide a platform for discussion, as anything can be solved - to some degree - with a conversation. She is the author of the following: La chica nueva, La niñera, El viaje difícil, Los tres amigos, Three Friends (for ELLs), La chica nueva Ancillary/Workbook and The New Girl (for ELLs), and La lucha de la vida and her latest, Maria Maria: un cuento de un huracán, and María María: A Story of a Storm, the English version of this title.
