Paperback. Zustand: Fair. For ages 9-12. In this sketchy but heartfelt novel, Miguel Rivera illegally enters the US with his parents when he is five and undergoes a variety of social and political traumas by the time he reaches middle school. The family takes in an orphan girl, and then grows to include twin sisters for Miguel as well. When his father disappears after leaving Texas to set up a new family home for them in New Mexico, mother and son become partners in keeping the rest of the family together and hopeful. When they move to New Mexico, Miguel encounters a gang of bullies, but makes new friends who help him discover the dignity of his ancestry as well as new inner strength. Meanwhile, a secondary set of characters includes a US Border Patrol officer and his nasty son, Miguel's peer. Although a lot happens in very few pages and both character and plot detail are sacrificed to brevity, the many issues raised are interesting. Some, including the guarded social interactions of illegal residents and the slave labour into which adults are still forced today, are unusual to find in fiction for this age group. Useful for social studies, though not for literature classes.…

Soft cover. Zustand: New. No Jacket. 1st Edition. The spectacular landscapes of the San Juan Mountains in southwestern Colorado are graphic evidence of the violent geology that concentrated a wealth of minerals in the triangle loosely defined by the picturesque mining towns of Telluride, Silverton and Ouray. An ancient hunting ground of indigenous peoples, these rugged high peaks concealed gold and silver discovered by westerners only in the last 150 years. These discoveries spurred mining booms and engineering feats as man worked to penetrate the ore- and crystal-laden cliffs and peaks. Modern visitors to the San Juans still collect minerals in the many prospects and trek the highways and byways that were first carved into the mountains by the pioneers. The mining history and stunning scenery of the San Juans is impossible to ignore, as are the Mountains of Minerals that make them so. Contributions by: David W. Bunk, Robert B.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Miguel Rivera is the new kid in town, a young Mexican living with his family near the border in Texas. It isn't bad enough that he has to deal with the class bully, Joey Jeter Cortes, and his mean substitute-teacher mother, he's also struggling with his family to find their place in a new world. One day, in Santa Fe, Miguel is chased by boys and takes refuge in the Palace of the Governors. There, among the old and dusty artifacts of the Kingdom of New Spain, Miguel learns about his homeland and what it means to be a boy full of pride and confidence, in America.…
