My Two Border Towns

★★★★★
★★★★★

English

By (author): David Bowles

Illustrated by: Erika Meza

Early one Saturday morning, a boy prepares for a trip to The Other Side/El Otro Lado. Its close - just down the street from his school - and its a twin of where he lives. To get there, his father drives their truck along the Rio Grande and over a bridge, where theyre greeted by a giant statue of an eagle. Their outings always include a meal at their favourite restaurant, a visit with Tío Mateo at his jewelry store, a cold treat from the paletero, and a pharmacy pickup. On their final and most important stop, they check in with friends seeking asylum and drop off much-needed supplies. See more

About David Bowles

David Bowles grew up in the Río Grande Valley of South Texas. As a kid he would regularly cross the border with his father to visit family buy historietas and watch movies. It's a tradition he continued with his own children making sure they became part of the transnational community he loves so much. David has written many books that center Mexican Americans in the borderlands including the award-winning They Call Me Güero and the 13th Street series. My Two Border Towns available in English and Spanish is his debut picture book.Erika Meza was born in Mexico fell in love with animation on the border with California and developed a taste for éclairs in Paris before moving to the U.K. An adoptive Tijuanense she took her first steps to find her visual voice at the border--forever fueled by tacos de birria. When Erika isn't drawing you'll find her drinking coffee tweeting or plotting ways to bring her cat traveling with her.
