The Education of Margot Sanchez by Lilliam Rivera

The Education of Margot Sanchez by Lilliam Rivera

When Margot was caught stealing from her father,  her family decided to teach her a lesson.  Instead of partying with her new friends, she is forced to spend the summer working in her family’s south Bronx  supermarket with her father and her brother.  

Longing to reunite with her friends,  Margot steals again and has to face the consequences and repair the damage she causes.  Along the way she receives an education that can’t be found in a classroom.  Recommended for confident readers looking for a protagonist who learns from their mistakes.--Jessica Fenster-Sparber
