A poignant, hilarious, and unforgettable graphic memoir about a
Mexican-American boy's family and their adventure-filled road trip to
bring their abuelito back from Mexico to live with them.
Pedro Martín has grown up hearing stories about his abuelito--his
legendary crime-fighting, grandfather who was once a part of the Mexican
Revolution! But that doesn't mean Pedro is excited at the news that
Abuelito is coming to live with their family. After all, Pedro has 8
brothers and sisters and the house is crowded enough! Still, Pedro piles
into the Winnebago with his family for a road trip to Mexico to bring
Abuelito home, and what follows is the trip of a lifetime, one filled
with laughs and heartache. Along the way, Pedro finally connects with
his abuelito and learns what it means to grow up and find his grito.
