About this product
Product Information
Best YA Historical Fiction, Kirkus Reviews Skipping Stones Honor Award, Skipping Stones Magazine An acclaimed YA debut novel that serves as a great alternative or companion to To Kill a Mockingbird-- exploring the dynamics of systemic racism in the 1950s through the eyes of a Latino boy coming of age. It's 1958, and a river runs through 12-year-old Manny's life--the railroad that passes along his barrio in San Gabriel, just ten miles east of L.A. It used to be a playground where he could while away time with his friends, throwing rocks at passing trains. Until they find the body of a man they might've accidentally killed with their games. The crooked cop they confess to is just glad to have something to hold against them. He's always been happy to terrorize the whole neighborhood for not being white. So now Manny is tormented by a guilty conscience, and the certainty that police will bang on his front door any day. His family is already struggling with the return of Uncle Rudy, a war-worn man just out from jail. Manny's dad keeps warning him to stay away from Rudy, that he's trouble, but he might have already screwed up his life all on his own.

Reviews
* "A dense story with rich associative leaps, the novel will prompt discussions about race, class, sexuality, and gender." -- Kirkus Reviews , starred review * "An essential title for any library." -- School Library Journal , starred review "The many layers of this beautifully built-up picture of an intelligent, goofy young kid who's well aware of his surroundings and faces them head-on is a brilliant debut of a promising young writer. Iron River will prompt discussions of race, class, culture, and teenage sexuality, and resonate with middle-grade through high school readers. It's highly recommended. --Beverly Slapin" -- De Colores: The Raza Experience in Books for Children "A powerful debut. --Karen Cruz" -- Booklist "I was so enthralled at the way [the book] tugged at my heartstrings that I read it twice...the story takes the reader on a colorful & nostalgic, albeit uncomfortable at points, trip into the recent past of an American Chicano community and family. It brings forth a multitude of emotions, should you allow yourself the luxury of immersing yourself into a good book." -- LatinosLA Best YA Historical Fiction of 2018, Kirkus Reviews Skipping Stone HonorPaterson Prize Southwest Book Award Paterson Prize Southwest Book Award, "I was so enthralled at the way [the book] tugged at my heartstrings that I read it twice...the story takes the reader on a colorful & nostalgic, albeit uncomfortable at points, trip into the recent past of an American Chicano community and family.

Super impressed with this seller! They had the best price by far for this book! Both the cost of the book and the shipping fee was far better than average! The book came exactly as described, it was well packaged and quite a bit earlier than expected! The seller was polite and replied quickly to my messages.
I’ll definitely make another purchase soon!
Thank you to the seller! Be safe and keep up the great work!

WONDERFUL book! Better than described, in just like new condition [not just good]. Packaged very carefully, shipped very securely. Great seller, would buy from again in a heartbeat! No communication occurred, but I imagine it would have been as good as the rest of their customer service. Very happy with purchase, thank you very much!
