Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview: #1 The United States is a much more powerful entity than La Llorona, the weeping woman who takes children away. It takes away parents, not children. #2 When my mother left to sell Avon products, I would often go with her. But when she said she wouldnât be gone for long, I knew it would be different. I never imagined that not too long would turn out to be never, because I never got my mother back. #3 I was too young to understand the risks my mother was taking, but I could see how she had changed walking down the street. She no longer looked down at the ground because she was afraid of the rocks tripping her. #4 My grandmotherâs house was located in a poor town in Mexico called Iguala de la Independencia. The house was surrounded by a corral. To the east of the house was an unpaved street that led to the church, the school, and the tortilla mill. To the west was a dirt road that led past Don Rubénâs house and curved east to the dairy farm, the canal, and the highway.
