Written from the perspective of the author when he was nine. Vivid and at times heartbreaking non-fiction. Should be required reading.

An immigrant story that is both gutting and heart-filling. Zamora made the journey from El Salvador to the United States in 1999 without his family when he was only nine years old, Solito. He tells his story through the perspective of his nine year old self.
