Desde su pequeño pueblo en El Salvador hasta llega a la frontera con Estados Unidos, la aventura de Javier Zamora es un viaje de tres mil millas. Va a reunirse con sus padres, una travesía que en su imaginación infantil durará solo dos semanas, pero que en realidad le tomará dos meses. Viajará solo y, como cualquier niño de nueve anos, será incapaz de preveer el peligro que acecha: los arriesgados viajes en bote, el implacable desierto, las armas y los arrestos, las decepciones que le esperan. Pero tampoco imaginará que, en el camino, encontrará a un grupo de emigrantes que lo protegerán como si fuesen su propia familia. -- Back cover.
From his small town in El Salvador to the US border, Javier Zamora's adventure is a journey of three thousand miles. He is going to join his parents, a journey that in his childhood imagination will last only two weeks, but in reality it will take two months. He will travel alone and, like any nine-year-old boy, he will be unable to foresee the danger that lurks: the risky boat trips, the unforgiving desert, the weapons and the arrests, the disappointments that await him. But neither will he imagine that, along the way, he will meet a group of immigrants who will protect him as if they were his own family.
