A Seed in the Sun by Aida Salazar
4.5
emotional hopeful sad fast-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: Complicated

A beautiful book in verse about migrant farm workers and the fight for fair treatment and workers rights. This book is set during the time that Caesar Chavez was actively campaigning for migrant workers in California. The main character is a young girl with an abusive, alcoholic father, so do check content warnings.
