Abuela's house -- To and from -- Gifts and fists -- An education -- Senior year -- There and back again -- Now. "Rex Ogle captures and celebrates the powerful presence of a woman he could always count on--to give him warm hugs and ear kisses, to teach him precious words in Spanish, to bring him to the library where he could take out as many books as he wanted, and to offer safety when darkness closed in. Throughout a coming of age marked by violence and dysfunction, Abuela's red-brick house in Abilene, Texas, offered Rex the possibility of home, and Abuela herself the possibility for a better life"--Provided by publisher.
