The house was dark. <I>Wait a minute -- do they even have electricity?</i><P><P>Even though Sofi Mendoza was born in Mexico, she's spent most of her life in California -- the closest she gets to a south-of-the-border experience is eating at Taco Bell. But when Sofi and her friends sneak off for a weekend in Tijuana, she gets in real trouble. To Sofi's shock, the border patrol says that her green card is counterfeit. Until her parents can sort out the paperwork and legal issues, Sofi is stuck in Mexico.<P><P>In the meantime, Sofi's parents arrange for her to stay with long-lost relatives in rural Baja. It's bad enough that Sofi has to miss senior prom and even graduation, but her aunt, uncle, and cousins live on a ranch with no indoor plumbing! As the weeks pass, though, she finds herself adapting to her surroundings. Sofi starts helping out on the ranch, getting along with her bratty cousins, and she even meets a guy with more potential than anyone from school. Through the unexpected crash course in her heritage, Sofi comes to appreciate that she has a home on both sides of the border.<P><P> 550618 22 5 2007 Sofi Mendoza's Guide to Getting Lost in Mexico total:67|5:15|4:19|3:22|2:9|1:2| 67 237 110 27 2 1 false false Tue Jan 01 00:00:00 -0800 2008 Sun Jan 20 05:26:35 -0800 2008 Fri Jan 25 05:37:59 -0800 2008 more...]]> 4 0 false false Sat Nov 01 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Thu Nov 20 17:58:29 -0800 2008 Tue Dec 02 20:07:38 -0800 2008 more...]]> 0 0 false false Thu Apr 30 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Tue May 05 11:30:31 -0700 2009 Tue May 05 11:36:40 -0700 2009 more...]]> 3 0 false false Sun Apr 12 09:45:00 -0700 2009 Wed Apr 15 21:47:44 -0700 2009 more...]]> 5 0 false false Sun May 11 23:30:16 -0700 2008 Sun May 11 23:30:30 -0700 2008
