Book excerpt: "Set in the south of Mexico, this is the realistic, colorful story of one child's rough road into the modern world. Surviving in a big city is a tall order if you've never seen one before, and you're only about six years old and all alone. But survival is Utuyu's challenge when he comes out of The Mountains to the North, where the people don't even speak Spanish, and finds himself in the bustling city of Oaxaca. His adventures make a tale of determination, courage and resourcefulness as Utuyu learns to cope with feelings all children share."--Taken from rear cover
