Spare Parts: Four Undocumented Teenagers, One Ugly Robot, and the Battle for the American Dream Books Review

Format: Paperback
Brilliant, inspirational, and heartwarming. The underdog story of teenagers competing for the prize was terrific fun, but what I really loved was getting to know the teenagers, their humor, their histories, and their personalities. The book gives a jarringly honest perspective of what it must be like to strive for success as an undocumented student when so much is working against you but also celebrates the many that are cheering them on. A book that everyone should read. Get online Spare Parts: Four Undocumented Teenagers, One Ugly Robot, and the Battle for the American Dream today.
