New Life

 Author's Note: This is a retelling piece about the book Crossing the Border.

A young and poor Mexican boy nicknamed Turtle journeys to America in hopes to get extra money for his family.  Along with his friend, Pepe, the boys will face Border Police, a group of killers, and  fearsome mountain lions.  When Pepe and Turtle finally make it to America they look back and notice how lucky they are to be alive.
