It's complicated. Sandro's father is in the states illegally and underemployed, his mother works hard, Sandro is smart but doesn't really apply himself, and he just found out his sister has a rare disease and needs heart surgery.
Sandro battles his own issues - homework, soccer, helping out at home, a missing Turtle, and friend issues.
What did I think? I liked Sandro's voice - kind of quirky. I liked the mention of illegals and the dilemma although...well, he was still illegal. The sickness of his sister was interesting and especially going back to Mexico for the surgery. I get how it is cheaper there but.... I travel to Guatemala a lot and I am sure surgery is cheaper there....doesn't mean I would do it there, just sayin.
Anyway - not bad, not great either.
