We are reading Mexikid: A Graphic Memoir by Pedro Martin. Copies of the book are available at the library. The Book Club is held at the Draper Senior Center.
This month, we are discussing Mexikid: A Graphic Memoir by Pedro Martin.
Pedro Martín has grown up hearing stories about his abuelito—his legendary crime-fighting, grandfather who was once a part of the Mexican Revolution! But that doesn't mean Pedro is excited at the news that Abuelito is coming to live with their family. After all, Pedro has 8 brothers and sisters and the house is crowded enough! Still, Pedro piles into the Winnebago with his family for a road trip to Mexico to bring Abuelito home, and what follows is the trip of a lifetime, one filled with laughs and heartache. Along the way, Pedro finally connects with his abuelito and learns what it means to grow up and find his grito.
The Book Club meets on the Second Monday of each month from 12:00 to 1:00 pm at the Draper Senior Center.
