It Doesn't Have to Be This Way/No tiene que ser asi: A Barrio Story/Una historia del barrio - Softcover
Monchi likes to write poems, hang out with his cousin, and tell stories to his uncle. Then one day, a member of the local gang tells him it's time to join up. Monchi is scared but excited. The older boys give him the handshake, girls talk to him, and even teachers are afraid of him. But when a tragic event changes everything, Monchi must make an important decision. There is no easy answer to his dilemma, but the love and respect of his uncle help him find a way out. Written in both English and Spanish, It Doesn't Have to Be This Way is a compelling tale of a young boy's encounter with the world of gangs.

About the Author:
Luis J. Rodriguez is the critically acclaimed author of Always Running: La Vida Loca, Gang Days in L.A., the inspiring story of how he found a way out of gang life in Los Angeles. Now a prominent poet, author, and educator, Rodriguez frequently travels throughout the country, educating the public about youth and violence, and counseling young people in gangs. He lives in Chicago with his wife, Trini Rodriguez, and their two young sons. Daniel Galvez has been creating public murals since 1976. His photo-realist style and focus on the strength of the human spirit have earned him numerous awards and national recognition. His public commissions have included a mural on Chinese immigration to California; a memorial to Vietnam veterans; and a tribute to Malcolm X at the Audubon Ballroom in Harlem, New York. Galvez lives in Oakland, California, with his wife, librarian Joan Galvez.
