“They tried to bury us . . . but they didn't know we were seeds?”
This was a beautifully written touching story about Efrén who is faced with one of the most horrific events one can experience as a child- being separated from a parent because of deportation. Efren's life falls apart when he comes back home to find his mother gone one day because ICE has detained and deported her. The anxiety of not knowing exactly where she is and if she will ever come back, is increased by having to assume responsibility for both himself and his younger siblings as their father is always working, to be able to keep the family afloat. This is probably something too many children have been going through, especially in the last few years, and it's heartbreaking.
