It is a sad and it also is a good book

This is such a sad book, but is so AWESOME at the same time! I cried, so touching!

It is I good I am reading it for my school book club

I LOVE THIS BOOK.I wish I had a copy of it,but read it from my school Library and loved it.I remember it being about a girl who's father is killed and her mother and her loose there money because her father is dead.They have to take a long journey to a place where they can work and live.I want to read this book again because I don't remember much about it,but I remember being so glued in I couldn't think straight about anything else.

I loved this book! It was a beautiful story, and I finished it quickly. By the way, I loooooved the book's cover! It looks amazing!

I like this book so far because there is a lot a details in the plot and the problems in the story are very sad.

i decide to read this book because i am hispanic and i wanted to learn about other hispanic culture and also because this shows like all you need is love from your family you dont need money and to like always try to best to be with your loved ones it sends a really good message

I think this book is really good because I like the action and the charters that play in the book that's what I like about the book.
