Alejandria Fights Back! / �La Lucha de Alejandria! - Leticia Hern�ndez-linares

\n \nFor nine-year-old Alejandria, home isn't just the apartment she shares with Mami and her abuela, Tita, but rather the whole neighborhood. Home is the bakery where Ms. Beatrice makes yummy picos; the sidewalk where Ms. Alicia sells flowers with her little dog, Duende; and the corner store with friendly Mr. Amir.\n \nBut lately the city has been changing, and rent prices are going up. Many people in el barrio are leaving because they can no longer afford their homes, and For Sale signs are popping up everywhere. Then the worst thing happens: Mami receives a letter saying they'll have to move out too.\n \nAlejandria knows it isn't fair, but she's not about to give up and leave. Join Alejandria as she brings her community together to fight and save their neighborhood!\n \n \n \n \n \nPara Alejandria de nueve a�os, el hogar no es s�lo el apartamento que comparte con Mami y su abuela, Tita, sino m�s bien todo el barrio. El hogar es la panader�a donde la Sra. Beatrice hace unos ricos picos; la vereda donde la Sra. Alicia vende flores con su perrito, Duende; y la pulper�a con el amistoso Sr. Amir.\n \nPero �ltimamente la ciudad ha estado cambiando, y los precios de alquiler est�n subiendo. Muchas personas en el barrio se est�n yendo porque ya no pueden costear sus hogares, y letreros anunciando Se Vende est�n apareciendo por todos lados. Entonces ocurre lo peor: Mami recibe una carta diciendo que ellas tambi�n tendr�n que mudarse.\n \nAlejandria sabe que no es justo, pero no est� dispuesta a darse por vencida e irse. �nete a Alejandria mientras ella re�ne a su comunidad para luchar y salvar su barrio!\n
