They Call Me Güero: A Border Kid's Poems by David Bowles

hopeful informative inspiring medium-paced

3.5

Guero is a boy growing up on the border between Mexico and the United States (Texas). He is lighter-skinned and more fair-haired than his family, which leads to people thinking he isn't Mexican-American. He has three friends named Bobby who help him navigate the trials of middle school, including bullies and crushes.  An interesting look at life along the border.
