Summary In this unique collection of interviews and poems, voices few Americans have ever heard speak out. Nine Mexican-American children from California's Salinas Valley share their experiences as migrant workers caught between two cultures. Working in the fields and encountering the challenges of gangs and prejudice, these kids emphasize the vital importance of family. They also speak of struggling for an education so their generation won't be limited to manual labor. Poems in Spanish and in English illuminate the themes.
