From the prolific author of The Moon Within comes the heart-wrenchingly beautiful story in verse of a young Latinx girl who learns to hold on to hope and love even in the darkest of places: a family detention center for migrants and refugees.Nine-year-old Betita knows she is a crane. Papi has told her the story, even before her family fled to Los Angeles to seek refuge from cartel wars in Mexico. The Aztecs came from a place called Aztlan, what is now the Southwest US, called the land of the cranes. They left Aztlan to establish their great city in the center of the universe-Tenochtitlan, modern-day Mexico City. It was prophesized that their people would one day return to live among the cranes in their promised land. Papi tells Betita that they are cranes that have come home.
Then one day, Betita's beloved father is arrested by Immigration Customs Enforcement (ICE) and deported to Mexico. Betita and her pregnant mother are left behind on their own, but soon they too are detained and must learn to survive in a family detention camp outside of Los Angeles. Even in cruel and inhumane conditions, Betita finds heart in her own poetry and in the community she and her mother find in the camp. The voices of her fellow asylum seekers fly above the hatred keeping them caged, but each day threatens to tear them down lower than they ever thought they could be. Will Betita and her family ever be whole again?

I bought this interactive ball for my dog, and it has been an excellent purchase.
Color: Blue, Color: Blue
I bought this interactive ball for my dog, and it has been an excellent purchase. He loves playing with it because it moves and bounces on its own, keeping him entertained for a long time. It feels durable, is easy to charge, and is of very high quality. I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a fun, long-lasting toy for their pets.

Great Interactive Dog Toy!

My dog absolutely loves this interactive ball! The material feels durable and stands up well to chewing. The bouncing and moving action keeps my dog entertained and active for long periods of time. It’s also easy to recharge and the size is perfect for medium to large dogs. So far, it has worked great and seems built to last. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a fun and engaging toy for their pet! 🐶🐾

Not Golden Retriever Proof
Color: Red
My Golden Retriever destroyed this ball within a couple hours of receiving it. Turned my back for a minute and she had it open and chewed on the internal part wrecking the charging port. Then proceeded to rip chunks off of the outer part. This is a great idea but maybe make it more difficult to open. BTW, my dog loved the ball when it was functioning properly.

Great Interactive Toy
Color: Blue
This toy is amazing for keeping my dog entertained and active! The movement feature really grabs my dog’s attention, and he loves chasing and playing with it. It is strong and durable, and the design is very cute.
It’s also great for preventing boredom, especially when my dog has extra energy. The battery lasts a good amount of time and it was very easy to set up. My dog plays with it every day and hasn’t gotten tired of it.
I highly recommend this toy to anyone who wants a fun and interactive way to keep their dog happy and busy!
