Beschreibung
Born in the poverty-stricken settlements of Tijuana and raised in the turbulent neighborhoods of East Los Angeles, Francisco Javier Estrada's life began in a world where survival was never guaranteed. Violence, discrimination, hardship, and uncertainty were part of everyday life, but so were family, faith, laughter, and an unbreakable determination to rise above circumstance. Honest, inspiring, and deeply human, From Cardboardland to Disneyland is a powerful reminder that where you start in life does not determine where you can go. It is built, piece by piece, from the ground up. It is a must-read memoir for anyone who believes in the power of perseverance, hope, and the pursuit of a better future. Dr. James R. , Ethnic Studies Professor. "A powerful contribution to Chicano literature. This book belongs in every university's curriculum. ". Maria L. , Los Angeles, CA. "Francisco's story moved me deeply. It is gritty and real, and it is a voice that is sorely lacking in this day and age. ". Carmen D. , Youth Mentor. "Perfect for inspiring young people caught in tough circumstances. Real, heartfelt, and unforgettable. ". Ana G. , San Antonio, TX. "Reading this book gave me hope. His ex- perience reminded me of the experience of my personal family. ".
