Two ways to request materials from Ocean State Libraries

How?

Print out a copy of the book's information, and bring it to Mrs. Gongoleski and she will request the book for you. **This is a slow process, and it may take your book 1-2 weeks to arrive.
OR...Log in to the Ocean State Library website using your public library card number. Find the book in your search results, and then click on the "Request It" icon located underneath the book's title. Finally, select the public library location where you would like to pick up the book. **This process is usually quicker, but you will need to get yourself to the public library to pick up the materials when they arrive.

Solito by Javier Zamora
ISBN: 9780593498064
Publication Date: 2022-09-06
Javier Zamora's adventure is a three-thousand-mile journey from his small town in El Salvador, through Guatemala and Mexico, and across the U.S. border. He will leave behind his beloved aunt and grandparents to reunite with a mother who left four years ago and a father he barely remembers. Traveling alone amid a group of strangers and a "coyote" hired to lead them to safety, Javier expects his trip to last two short weeks. At nine years old, all Javier can imagine is rushing into his parents' arms, snuggling in bed between them, and living under the same roof again. He cannot foresee the perilous boat trips, relentless desert treks, pointed guns, arrests and deceptions that await him; nor can he know that those two weeks will expand into two life-altering months alongside fellow migrants who will come to encircle him like an unexpected family. A memoir as gripping as it is moving, Solito provides an immediate and intimate account not only of a treacherous and near-impossible journey, but also of the miraculous kindness and love delivered at the most unexpected moments. Solito is Javier Zamora's story, but it's also the story of millions of others who had no choice but to leave home.
