Return To Sender
Hi! my name is Lili. I'm reading Return To Sender by Julia Alvarez. I'm reading this book because Mrs. Kohtala told us to read a book about multicultural literature for Hispanic Heritage month. I choose this book because the cover looked cool.
Here is a little summary about the book: Main Characters: Tyler and Mari setting: In Tyler's house, farm, and in Mari's house Problem: Mari and his uncles and dad are Mexicans without papers Mari's sisters (Ofie and Luby) were born in America so they're safe but, if other people find out that Mari and her uncles, and dad don't have papers they will get sent back to Mexico but if they do what will happen to Ofie and Luby? Mari's mom went to Mexico she was coming back but it's been a year now and nobody knows anything about her. Will she come back? Events:Tyler lives on a farm. This summer was not a real good one for Tyler. His grandpa died and his dad got in an accident, so he can't milk the cows because he needs to heal. So he had to hire Mexicans. One of Mari's uncles went to a party with Ben, Tyler's older brother and Ben got stopped for speeding and Mari's uncle got nervous and ran and migration got him and locked him up.
I really like it so far, because it's a book with feeling and sadness and action. That is my kind of a book.
I recommend it to people who want a book full of sadness, action and feeling.
