About This Item
Harcourt Brace Jovanovich, 1973. Hard Cover. Near Fine/Fine. First Edition. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. ISBN:0-15-253900-X. Geraldo Rivera knows from his own childhood experiences that growing up in a poor neighborhood has never been easy. Living in an apartment with too much heat or none at all, going to an old rundown school, avoiding winos and junkies in the nearby park - these things are all part of Miguel Roble's life on New York's Lower East Side. But they are by no means his whole life. In this highly realistic, personal narrative, eleven-year-old Miguel also talks about the love the members of his close knit family hav e for one another, the jokes and laughter and fun shared with friends, and his amibtion to make a better life for himself. Miguels's story is a sensitive portrayal of life in a predominently Puerto R i can neighborhood that carries a message of hope for the many other Miguels in America. Great collector book for any Geraldo Rivera fan. The book spine top is bumped, very light rubbing of spine bot tom corners & bottom front edge corners. The printing is listed as 'B C D E F G H I J'. The buyer of this book will be extremely pleased..
