"Marcelo and Julio show determination and strength every day as they cross the border from Venezuela to Colombia to attend a better school in this empowering picture book. Marcelo and her cousin Julio live in Venezuela, but every day they get up at dawn to make the arduous journey to cross the border to their school in Colombia.
