About the Author

What is empathy?

The author, Sonia Nazario, is also an immigrant from Argentina, and although her experience was very different from Enrique’s, what is it about her background that gives her empathy for her characters?

How does she identify and connect with the individuals in the book, Enrique’s Journey?

Push and Pull Factors

What are some of the reasons that Carmen left her children in Guatemala?

The Value of Replication

Knowing the risks that many children face along the journey through Mexico, was it necessary for Sonia Nazario to replicate portions of Enrique’s Journey in order to tell the story of migrant children?

Explain.

Affirm or Negate Predictions

Now that you have read the prologue, re-evaluate your predictions that were based on the photos.

Have your predictions changed?

Why or why not?

Use evidence from the prologue.

What We Have

Nazario states, “The migrants I spent time with also gave me an invaluable gift. They reminded me of the value of what I have. They taught me that people are willing to die in their quest to obtain it.”

What does this quote mean to you?

What do you have that’s worth taking a risk for?

Anger in the Reunion

Why do you think that the children are angry with their mothers after reuniting with them?

Enrique’s Survival Packet

MONDAY/TUESDAY

Enrique’s journey tested his determination, abilities, and strength in many ways. He was physically drained, emotionally weathered, and mentally taxed on his journey.
