Summary

Valeria, a young Cuban girl, faces the most challenging journey of her life when she emigrates to the United States with her mother. Leaving behind the only home she's ever known, Valeria's path is fraught with danger as she crosses the Mexican border illegally.

Un paí s en mi mochila is a powerful coming-of-age story that delves into the trials of leaving one's homeland, the hardships of starting anew, and the enduring hope for a better future.
