The book you are holding in your hands has unique content and characteristics: it contains stories narrated by high school students. The first, as part of a Spanish project. The latter, as a sign of trust but at the same time a personal interest in motivating and helping others. They are stories of 100 Latino students who narrate obstacles but also triumphs of those who overcame them. There are 100 experiences that seek to make teachers, parents, and society in general aware that when a boy or a girl does not seem to be successful in school, it is not always due to a lack of ability or interest in education, but by factors that imply a great challenge for each student. I hope reading one of them will help a young man write his own success story beginning with high school graduation.
