Fall for the Book

Meet journalist Laura Wides-Muñoz, author of The Making of a Dream: How a Group of Young Undocumented Immigrants Helped Change What it Means to be American and Hareth Andrade-Ayala, one of the book’s featured youths. Wides-Muñoz chronicles the next chapter in civil rights as witnessed through the inspiring experiences of five young undocumented activists who are transforming society’s attitudes toward one of the most contentious political matters roiling America today: immigration. Kirkus Reviews calls the book “Poignant… An eye-opening exploration of the DREAM Act and those who have tried to find safe harbor in the United States under its aegis. A well-crafted, timely contribution to the immigration debate.”
