- My Spanish tutor recommended this book, and I bought to help my reading comprehension. It has helped tremendously. I would say that it is for the intermediate learner or maybe, slightly higher. I have read all but the last three chapters, and have enjoyed them immensely. It has also helped me learn a great deal more about verbs (number one thing for me), grammar, and sentence structure in Spanish. This would be a great book for anyone learning Spanish, or for Spanish speakers to read to their children.
For those who are unfamiliar with the Bracero Programa which took place in California in the 1940s, 1950s, and maybe, the 1960s, it will be quite the eye-opener. Los Braceros picked all the fruits and vegetables that were commercially grown in California, and in my opinion, were treated despicably. These are the more-or-less autobiographical stories of the author who grew up in the era of this program, but the family never returned to Mexico. In two or three chapters, he mentions "undocumentos" so I believe that the family had green cards. The author and his older brother were born in Mexico, but the rest of his siblings were born in California. I love these stories even though at times they are very sad. For all Spanish language learners, this book and the others should be read. - I just finished reading this for my Spanish 11 class for native speakers. Aside from working in the fields, this book pretty much sums up my childhood from the moment my brothers and I came across the border illegally with a group of strangers. No speaking a single word of the English language, at the age of 9 I was enrolled in 4th grade. Just as Panchito, I too felt so scared, afraid and alone, but I was lucky enough to find two friends who spoke Spanish and English and helped me. Until they got promoted to 5th grade and I stayed in 4th. I highly recommend this book, its an easy read and easy to follow. Im ordering the next one to read for fun.
- Este libro es un tesoro. La vida de Panchito era muy duro, como inmigrante mexicano quien mudó a los EE.UU. con su familia sin saber ni una palabra de inglés y habÃa mudarse por lo menos una vez durante el año escolar, cuando su papá encontró otro trabajo. La pobreza, el temor de ser detenido por "la migra", afectó su vida diaria. Su interés en el aprender era evidente desde el principio, y afectó su vida increÃblemente, como puede aprender de sus otros libros.
Vale la pena de leerlo. - The English version titled "The Circuit" caught my eye a year ago and now, buying the original Spanish version for a class, I'm glad I waited to buy this one. The stories are filled with colloquial Spanish sayings and an eye-opening perspective on Mexican immigration. I would not reccommend the read for a beginner, but for an advanced Spanish student or anyone interested in a child's perspective on the immigration crisis, this book is an absolute MUST.
- The book seemed to jump around a lot, but overall it's a great story of a boy and his family who come from Mexico to the United States as undocumented immigrants. It really shows the different aspects of immigration to America, even though it is a little dated (around the 50s, before Caesar Chavez). I would write this review in Spanish but I don't think my Spanish vocabulary is built up enough.
- I love memoirs, and this was no different. I had to read it for my Introduction to Spanish Literature class and I wasn't disappointed. I identified with Francisco's heartbreaking story of him and his migrant family from start to finish, and the ending is a twist worthy of M. Night Shlamylan.
Me encantan las memorias, y esto libro no difiere. TenÃa que leerlo para mi clase de la literatura española, y no me decepcionó. Me identifiqué con Francisco y su historia triste de él y su familia de inmigrantes desde el inicio al fin, y el fin es una vuelta muy impactante, por lo menos para mÃ. - Although I didn't know every word in the book, I understood most of it and it's a good read for someone working on improving their Spanish.
- I bought the book for my Spanish Heritage Speakers. I enjoy how the stories can be related to current events. The language is easy to understand and the details help you visualize each ocurrence .
