Sinopsis

The Nelson Beats the Odds Compendium Two features Ronnie Nelson Sidney, II’s latest graphic novel, Carlos Crosses the Border. The story follows Carlos, a Honduran migrant, whose family is forced to flee their home when gangs threaten his brother. Carlos and his family face a dangerous journey to the United States, traveling in a caravan, riding the freight train La Bestia, and crossing deserts and rivers, confronting fear and uncertainty along the way.

This Nelson Beats the Odds series includes Amazon Best-Seller Nelson Beats the Odds, about Nelson, a young boy with ADHD and a learning disability who overcomes stigma in special education; Tameka’s New Dress, which follows a confident girl confronting bullying and childhood trauma; and Rest in Peace RaShawn Reloaded, which was selected for the Recommended Book List for the 2018 In the Margins Book Award.
