En Casa Durante La Guerra Con Valentina - Un Diario de 1940 a 1943

En 1940, Valentina, de once años, asume nuevas responsabilidades cuando sus hermanos mayores se alistan en la Guardia Nacional en vísperas de la entrada de Estados Unidos en la Segunda Guerra Mundial, a la vez que lidia con el rechazo a su familia mexicano-estadounidense por parte de la comunidad de Texas. In 1940, eleven-year-old Valentina takes on new responsibilities as her older brothers join the National Guard in the lead-up to the United States' entry into World War II, while also grappling with the lack of acceptance her Mexican American family experiences in their Texas community.
