of the Guardian Angel: A bilingual lucha libre thriller. El Paso, TX: Cinco
Puntos Press.
What eleven-year old isn’t into wrestling? Well, maybe quite
a few eleven year olds aren’t, but many could definitely relate to Maximilian’s
passion for the exciting, perhaps a little too violent sport of wrestling.
Attending his favorite wrestler’s match (The Guardian Angel), was Maximilian’s
dream come true. Imagine the excitement he felt upon been given the opportunity
to see his favorite wrestler live! It was most definitely his dream come true. What
could possibly be even more amazing than learning that there was much more
connecting him to his favorite wrestler than their mutual passion for the
sport. This tale teaches us about the importance of being with family,
regardless of the situation or possible hardships and of never abandoning those
who love you while chasing dreams. Family is a big thing, and as so, leaving
them is not the optimal thing to do. Find out how Max learns about the
importance of family and unity.
Who hasn't fantasized about the idea that our super hero, or our favorite singer, or actor, or athlete either becomes our friend, our husband, or is our uncle? Well...Maximilian gets to experince this. How different can it be though knowing that this new found relative left willingly?
