We, the Vargas Ramírez family, come from a faraway place north of Tenochtitlan called Iztapalapa, Land of Clay Upon Water. A land surrounded by cars and dry grass; a place where the pieces of our small world were scattered. For some time we lived there, but then one day my father heard a beautiful birdsong that rose up and appeared to say tihui, tihui, tihui: let's go, let's go, let's go. And so we gathered up our friends who made up that small world and decided to head north, for the other side, and a better life.

Together the Boy and his family will journey from the Land of the Frogs to The Place Where Feet Cry to the River Where the Waters Tangle, fleeing Gunmen and braving Coyotes and plunging darknesses as black as an obsidian forest. Originally published in Mexico, Pilgrim Codex (Códice peregrino) captures through the eyes of a child one family's part in the ever-changing and fleeting story of the brave migrant warriors who search for a better place to live.

Itza era la princesa más hermosa de la tierra, y muchos pretendientes viajaban de todas partes para cortejarla. Aun siendo la hija del emperador, Itza no quería casarse con un hombre de poder y riqueza. En cambio, se enamoró de Popoca, un valiente guerrero que peleaba en el ejército de su padre, quien no le ofreció riquezas, sino la promesa de quedarse a su lado para siempre.

El emperador no quería que su hija se casara con un simple guerrero, aunque reconocía la valentía de Popoca. Por lo que le ofreció un trato: si el guerrero lograba derrotar a su enemigo, Garra de Jaguar, entonces el emperador les permitiría casarse a Itza y a Popoca. Pero Garra de Jaguar tenía un plan para frustrar al guerrero. Estará todo perdido?

Hoy existen dos majestuosos volcanes, Popocatépetl e Iztaccíhuatl, que pueden verse desde la Ciudad de México. Ellos han sido admirados y venerados por muchas generaciones, dando origen a varias historias y mitos acerca de su creación. En La princesa y el guerrero, el premiado autor e ilustrador Duncan Tonatiuh nos relata una de las leyendas mas queridas de México.

La integración de palabras en náhuatl (definidas con una guía de pronunciación en el glosario) en la narración brinda una gran oportunidad para presentar y explorar otra faceta de la antigua cultura azteca.

Two cousins live in two towns, separated by a river. But there is also a bigger divide--the US-Mexico border--which means they live in different countries. On the girl's side, English is the main language, and on the boy's it's Spanish. The cousins love their towns, and they love visiting each other's, where they notice some things are the same and some are wonderfully different, adding up to a vibrant world full of even more possibilities.

Author Nicholas Solis shows how border towns are special places, beautiful and dynamic, because two cultures can be better than one--and both cultures should be equally treasured and respected.

Nosotros, la familia Vargas Ramírez, venimos de un lugar lejano al norte de Tenochtitlan llamado Iztapalapa, lugar de la loza sobre el agua. Una tierra rodeada de autos y pasto seco. Un sitio donde estaban repartidos los pedazos de nuestro pequeño mundo. Ahí vivimos algún tiempo, pero un día mi padre escuchó un canto hermoso de un ave que se elevaba y parecía decir tihui, tihui, tihui: vamos, vamos, vamos. Y así reunimos a nuestros amigos que conformaban ese pequeño mundo y decidimos partir hacia el norte, hacia el otro lado, hacia una vida mejor.

Juntos, el niño y su familia viajarán desde la tierra de las ranas hasta el lugar donde los pies lloran, pasando por el río donde se enredan las aguas, huyendo de los pistoleros y enfrentando a los coyotes y a las oscuridades profundas como un bosque de obsidiana. Originalmente publicado en México, Códice peregrino (Pilgrim Codex) captura a través de los ojos de un niño la experiencia de una familia en la constantemente cambiante y fugaz historia de los valientes guerreros migrantes que buscan un lugar mejor para vivir.

What is the recipe? I ask.
Abuela laughs. It is in my heart, Rosie. I use mis ojos, my eyes, to measure. Mis manos, my hands, to feel. Mi boca, my mouth, to taste. My abuela gave it to me, and I am giving it to you.

Each year on Christmas Eve, Rosie's abuela, mamá, tía, sister, and cousins all gather together in Abuela's kitchen to make tamales--cleaning corn husks, chopping onions and garlic, roasting chilis, kneading cornmeal dough, seasoning the filling, and folding it all--and tell stories. Rosie learns from her abuela not only how to make a delicious tamale, but how to make a delicious life, one filled with love, plenty of spice, and family.
Drawing upon their own Latinx family experiences, Genhart and Lora cook up a beautiful story of food and cultural identity, rooted in family recipes, storytelling, and togetherness. --Booklist (Starred Review)

The warmth of family love and support wafts enticingly through this homage to tradition. --Kirkus Reviews (Starred Review)

Over a decade since its publication, Ann Jaramillo's heartbreaking middle grade novel La Linea--about crossing the Mexican border into the US--is more timely than ever.

Miguel has dreamed of joining his parents in California since the day they left him behind in Mexico six years, eleven months, and twelve days ago. On the morning of his fifteenth birthday, Miguel's wait is over.

Or so he thinks. The trip north to the border--la línea--is fraught with dangers. Thieves. Border guards. And a grueling, two-day trek across the desert. It would be hard enough to survive alone. But it's almost impossible with his tagalong sister in tow.

Their money gone and their hopes nearly dashed, Miguel and his sister have no choice but to hop the infamous mata gente as it races toward the border. As they cling to the roof of the speeding train, they hold onto each other, and to their dreams. But they quickly learn that you can't always count on dreams--even the ones that come true.

The first time Abuela holds Niña, her heart overflows with tenderness. And as Niña grows up, she and Abuela spend plenty of time together. Abuela can't help thinking how much she'd like to give Niña a very special treat, so she saves a little bit of her money every week--a few pesos here, a few pesos there. When the world turns upside down, Abuela's dream of a surprise for Niña seems impossible. Luckily, time spent together--and the love Abuela and Niña have for each other--could turn out to be the very best gift of all. With a soft and subtle hand, author-illustrator Cecilia Ruiz draws from her own history to share a deeply personal tale about remembering what's most important when life starts to get in the way.
