Under the Mesquite<\/a>
\nby Guadalupe Garcia Mccall (Author)
\n224 pages<\/p>\n

Booktalk:<\/strong> When Lupita learns Mami has cancer, she is terrified by the possibility of losing her mother, the anchor of her close-knit family. Suddenly, being a high school student, starring in a play, and dealing with friends who don’t always understand, become less important than doing whatever she can to save Mami’s life.<\/p>\n

Snippet:<\/strong>
\nBut lately Mami’s changed.
\nA thorny mesquite has sprouted
\nin the middle of her rose garden.
\nEven after she has pulled it out
\nby its roots repeatedly,
\npricking herself on its thorns each time,
\nit keeps growing back.
