"This debut novel in free verse chronicles the experience of a young highland Guatemalan indigenous boy in the midst of the country’s civil war, a little-known topic in the United States. Carlos’s village is caught in a conflict between the army and guerilla soldiers, and throughout the text he is faced with decisions, large and small, around the concept of what it means to become a man. The visual layout of the poems serves to deepen the meaning and emotional impact of this powerful work. Gr 6 Up." - School Library Journal
