A stirring and thoughtful nonfiction work in graphic form, going beyond headlines or statistics to provide a powerful individual account of migration.
When Carlos was nineteen years old, his mother decided to leave her life in El Salvador, seeking a new start in the United States. She arranged the services of a coyote for the journey north. Reluctant to leave, but refusing to let his mother go without him, Carlos joined her. During their trip through Mexico, they experienced the risks and the fears countless people from Central American countries face as they migrate toward different lands. Ten years later, Carlos shared these memories with his cousin Ernesto. The result of their conversation is Just Another Story: A Graphic Migration Account.
