tc 3. The BOrder A glare of Truth by Pat Mora

Mora always has a soft spot for celebrations, music, elaborate costumes and the beautiful sounds of spanish. When Mora heard Spanish being spoken, she wished she could be part of the conversation. The culture enriches Mora's American life as well. There is a fusion of sorts that takes place. There is a sense of identity that Mora finds in her heritage that completes her no matter where she is.
