Soto, Gary Facts of Life Stories, 176 pgs. Hartcourt, 2008.
Language - PG, Sexual Content - PG; Violence -PG
HS – OPTIONAL
In this collection of stories, we are introduced to a number of Latino tweens and teens taking their first steps into adulthood. From dealing with the divorce of one’s parents to facing prejudice, these characters have their values tested.
While I appreciated the focus on young Latino characters, I felt the stories were awkward and incomplete.
