Author Jennine Capó Crucet, known as Lizet in her novel, and Ariel Hernandez, whose real name is Elián González, both arrived to Miami on the same day: “Thanksgiving 1999” (p. 6). Ariel arrived on a broken raft with the help of some fisherman, and Lizet flew in from New York only a few hours later. Even though their stories seem completely different, they were both trying to make a home among strangers. They both faced family, cultural, and political issues, but Ariel’s story was broadcast for everyone to see.

There are five rivers in Big Bend National Park: Rio Grande, Santa Elena Canyon, Mariscal Canyon, Boquillas Canyon, and Lower Canyons (NPS).

I expected to find a typical American beach resort, replete with masses of tourists and messy hedonistic vitality. And, that’s what I found – in part.
I have lived in the hot state of Arizona for the past 6 years. It’s taken me years to adjust to the outside heat as I’m used to being in a cool climate.

The Giver states how he doesn’t want the Rosemary incident (this time being more severe since Jonas has a year’s worth of recollections) to happen again.
