Solito by Javier Zamora

Rose Lachman

“Incredible storytelling of his walk through the desert to join his parents in the US, narrated from his child perspective. Gripping, heart warming and breaking.”

“I loved this memoir! Solito follows Javier Zamora’s journey from El Salvador to the U.S. at just nine years old, traveling without his parents and relying on a group of strangers along the way. It is equally as hopeful as it is heartbreaking and so relevant, especially right now. It’s one of those books that really stays with you”

“Written from the perspective of the author when he was nine. Vivid and at times heartbreaking non-fiction. Should be required reading.”
