No Place
As a teenager in a small town in suburban Minnesota, a novel that portrays life for a Hispanic-American in LosAngeles, opens my eyes to the "outside world", so to speak. It really influenced me, in the sense that, like Arturo Morales, the young boy, I am looked upon as small and insignificant. Another factor against Arturo and his aspiring friends is the fact that he is hispanic. As the story progresses, Arturo realizes that he has the power and courage to make a difference! By reading this book, I too realize that the people who look at me as insignificant, are totally wrong. I can make a positive impact on lives if I set my mind to it. This is a wonderful book that will open the eyes of many teens! Haugaard does a wonderful inspiring job in her novel, No Place!
