That boat gave us back the ability to dream, and now, almost 31 years later, I see it as a symbol of the hope that was taken from us. But when I was 9, that boat represented a lot of fear and pain, as it meant leaving behind everything I knew.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI wrote this book not only to offer encouragement to the children and families who have gone through this difficult experience, but also to reveal the harsh reality of the immigrant. I wanted to tell it from the perspective of a child because I believe we all have that inner child, and I wanted to express it through my own life's lens. No matter where you come from, this book reflects a piece of all of us, because no one chooses to leave their homeland; sometimes, we simply have no other choice.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jenisbel Acevedo\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1966003153\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781966003151\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Self Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/28\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 94\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.77lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.38d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLarge Print\u003c\/b\u003e","brand":"Jenisbel Acevedo","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48442769375487,"sku":"9781966003151","price":24.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_65965aab-e986-47d5-8063-3a90670b941c.jpg?v=1777199647","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/a-raft-of-dreams-jenisbel-acevedo-9781966003151","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
