Becoming Maria: Love and Chaos in the South Bronx: Love and Chaos in the South Bronx by Sonia Manzano

3.0

I liked this biography, which consists of little vignettes from Manzano's life. I'm not 100% sure it will appeal to young kids, but I could see older tweens and teens getting into this book. As an adult, I enjoyed it. Manzano's writing is clear, and her stories transport you into her life in the South Bronx, and beyond.
