Mexikid (Spanish Edition) -- Pedro Mart?, Paperback


Pedro/Peter Martín es un Mexikid, o un niño que nació en Estados Unidos de padres mexicanos: un niño que no pertenece a ninguno de los dos lugares.

Así que no sabe qué pensar cuando su padre anuncia que toda la familia ( 11 personas!) se apretará dentro del Winnebago para manejar 2,000 millas hasta México con una misión: traer a su misterioso abuelito de la era de la Revolución Mexicana a vivir con ellos.

Esta divertidísima memoria gráfica es la historia de un Mexikid en busca de su grito... en el viaje más importante de su vida.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

A poignant, hilarious, and unforgettable graphic memoir about a Mexican-American boy's family and their adventure-filled road trip to bring their abuelito back from Mexico to live with them.

Pedro/Peter Martín has grown up hearing stories about his abuelito--his legendary crime- fighting, grandfather who was once a part of the Mexican Revolution! But that doesn't mean Pedro is excited at the news that Abuelito is coming to live with their family. After all, Pedro has 8 brothers and sisters and the house is crowded enough! Still, Pedro piles into the Winnebago with his family for a road trip to Mexico to bring Abuelito home, and what follows is the trip of a lifetime, one filled with laughs and heartache. Along the way, Pedro finally connects with his abuelito and learns what it means to grow up and find his grito.
