More About This Book

Overview

When falling crop prices threaten his family with starvation, fifteen–year–old Victor Flores heads north in a desperate attempt to "cross the wire" from Mexico into the United States so he can find work and send money home. But with no "coyote money" to pay the smugglers who sneak illegal workers across the border, Victor must struggle to survive as he jumps trains, stows away on trucks, and hikes grueling miles through the Arizona desert.

Victor's journey is fraught with danger, as he faces freezing cold, scorching heat, hunger, and dead ends. It's a gauntlet run by millions attempting to cross the border. Through Victor's often desperate struggle, Will Hobbs brings to life one of the great human dramas of our time.

Editorial Reviews

Children's Literature
Victor Flores is fifteen and faced with tremendous problems. His family's small farm in rural Mexico is failing. The death of his father while working in America has left the Flores family desperate. All that Victor can do is leave his family behind and head out to try to find work in "El Norte," the United States. Victor's journey will not be an easy one as he encounters gangs, greedy drug runners, coyotes bent upon sucking profit from the poor migrants, the dangers inherent in crossing the deserts and mountains, and the migra, or border patrol. Along the way Victor makes short-term acquaintances and discovers just how important friendship can be. Victor also finds the strength within himself to sacrifice nearly everything so that he can earn enough money to support his family back in Mexico. Will Hobbs' Crossing the Wire is a powerful story that helps to put a human face on the issues of illegal immigration into the United States from Mexico. In the character of Victor Flores readers will meet a youngster whose sole motivation is to support his economically strapped family. His efforts are almost universally met with exploitation, cruelty, and danger. In the end Victor discovers a great deal, not only about the way the passage north operates but also about himself. Crossing the Wire is a well told tale and a novel that readers will appreciate and learn from. 2006, HarperCollins, and Ages 10 up.

From The Critics
In his many outstanding novels for teens, Hobbs has celebrated Western North America from the boreal forests of Canada, through varied regions of the Western United States, and southward into Mexico. His books involve outdoor adventure in challenging and often remote landscapes. Here fifteen-year-old Victor Flores is compelled to leave his family and the village where he has lived all his life, to "cross the wire" from Mexico into the United States. Since the death of his father, Victor has been the sole support of his mother and young siblings, and he now faces fearful challenges. First having no money to pay "coyote" guides, he must make the illegal crossing without support, evading authorities and troublemakers on both sides of the border. Then lacking English language or trade skills-let alone a green card-he must somehow avoid deportation and earn enough to support himself and to send money home to his mother. Victor's story is riveting, and the reader is immersed in striking natural landscapes while experiencing at first hand the controversial drug, labor, and immigration politics of the Arizona-Mexico border region. While obviously sympathetic to migrant workers and illegal aliens, Hobbs is unsentimental in his portrayal of the hard lives and unpleasant choices facing impoverished Mexican villagers. Fleeing starvation, Victor soon finds himself facing drugs, gang warfare, and violence. No choices are easy or safe, and mere survival presents deadly risks at every turn. It is an exciting story in a vital contemporary setting.

Chapter One

Old Friends


The end was coming, but I didn't see it coming.

I was done for the day. The sun had set, my shovel was on my shoulder, and I was walking up the path to the village. As I passed under a high stone wall, my mind only on my empty stomach, a shadowy figure swooped down on me with a shriek that could have raised the dead. I let out a yelp and leaped out of the way.

"Scared you," cried my best friend, Rico Rivera. "Scared you bad, Victor Flores."

I shook my shovel at him. "'Mano, you're lucky I didn't attack you with this."

"What did you think I was?"

"A flying cow, you maniac."

"You should have heard yourself! You squealed like a pig!"

I could only laugh. It had been a long time since Rico had pulled a trick like this. This was the way it used to be with Rico and me, until three years ago, when Rico started trade school in the city of Silao. He lived there now with his sister, whose husband worked at the General Motors plant. Sometimes Rico came home to the village on weekends, but I wouldn't always see him. We were fifteen years old now, with life pulling us in different directions, but we still called each other 'mano. We were hermanos in our hearts. Actual brothers couldn't have grown up much closer.

Rico puthis arm around my shoulder. "I have something to tell you, Victor." Suddenly he wasn't joking around. "Follow me," Rico said gravely. "I have a secret to show you."

"You know how I hate secrets. I thought there weren't any between us."

"A couple of minutes, and there won't be."

Dusk was deepening as Rico led me past the village church, past the cemetery and the dirt field where we'd played futbol and beisbol ever since I could remember. I followed my friend to the old village, abandoned after an earthquake hundreds of years before. All that remained, overgrown with brush, vines, and cactus, were the stone walls built to hold back the hillside. The moon was up, but its light was weak and eerie. This was a place to stay away from.

Rico paused where one of these ancient walls was especially thick with giant prickly pear. "We have to crawl underneath the cactus," he announced.

I wasn't so sure.

"It should be easy for you, Victor. C'mon, Tortuga."

Only Rico called me Turtle. It was a little joke of his. With his long legs, he'd always been the better sprinter, but not by much. "Turtle," though, was only partly about running. Mostly it had to do with my cautiousness.

Here and now, I had reason to be cautious. This was where my four sisters collected cactus fruit and also the pads for roasting as nopales. Teresa, the oldest of my sisters, always carried a stick on account of the rattlesnakes.

Unlike Rico, I was afraid of rattlesnakes. "It's too murky to be crawling in there," I told him.

"I know what you're afraid of, but it's the middle of March. They haven't come out yet. Just follow me."

As always, Rico went first. Once inside, we sat next to each other, our backs to the ancient wall. "Just like the old days," Rico said.

I liked hearing him say that, but it wasn't like Rico to be sentimental. What was this all about? Maybe it was going to be a trick after all. There would be no secret.

"Watch this," Rico said as he reached into a crevice and brought out a small glass jar. With a gleam in his eye, he placed it in my hand. In the patchy moonlight, I had to bring the jar close to my face to make out what was inside. It was a roll of money, and not pesos. American greenbacks, with the number 100 showing. "How much?" I gasped.

"There are fifteen of those. You're looking at one thousand, five hundred American dollars."

I was astounded. In school I had learned to convert kilos to pounds and kilometers to miles. But pesos to dollars was different, floating up and down. The last I heard, it was eleven to one. That meant this was more than sixteen thousand pesos. My family could get by for more than a year on this much money. "I don't understand," I said. "Your parents gave it to you?"

"My parents? Did you hit your head, 'mano?"

"Did you win the lottery? Is the money yours, Rico?"

"It's mine. It's from one of my brothers in the States. It's my coyote money."

The expression meant only one thing. Coyotes were the smugglers who took people across the border to El Norte.

It didn't seem possible. "You're leaving for the other side?"

"Yes, I'm leaving Mexico. I'm going to cross the wire. Destination, the United States of America."

Continues...

    Great book

    This is one of the best books i have ever read. I loved how it went into the eyes of Victor Flores and his struggle to cross the border to make a living for his family. He was now the man of the house and after I read this book, I think he did a good job when taking responsibility of his family.

    The story was good, but i dislike the point the author is trying to get accross.

    The book isnt all that great and i was expecting more at the end. And after all Arizona has gone through to help stop the flow of illegal immigration, someone just comes out and writes this book. I know schools are encouraging students to read this because it was a summer homework assignment for my school. I am really against illegals coming to America from anywhere, and this book is trying to get people to be kind to immagrants. There is a system in the U.S. where people from other countries can get their green card and citezenship if they are qualified. In my opinion, it would be easier to make yourself educated and then come to America and become a citizen and have a brighter futer paved for you. This nonsense of sneaking accross the boarder only puts you in danger and makes others unhappy. I think this book told a nice adventure story, but I dislike the point of the story. Illegal aliens should have to work to get here. Some Americans may not be up to the challenge of the hard work, but there are a lot of hard working people in this country. I dont have anything against hispanics, but I do not like what this story implies, and I do not think little kids should be having this idea planted in there minds that other people should be able to just waltz into our country. If you got home and an uninvited stranger was sitting on your couch, you would be upset, right? America is our house and these illegals are the strangers on our couches. Why are we encouraging them to break into our house hold? Take the information I have given you and do with it what you will.

    Adrian Salome Crossing the wire by Willl Hobbs

    Well this book is very interesting it is about fifteen year old kid Victor Flores that he wanted to cross the Mexican and United States border. Because his family didnt have enough money for his house. So his friend Rico went first because he had a brothere there in the United States that sended him money so he could go over to the United States with coyotes which were guys who smuggled you in the frontier. So he went. <the thing was thar Victor Flores did not have coyote money so he hadto go by himself which was a very dificcult thing to do because he was scared, afraid, and have never gone to the United States and had nowhere to go. So he went and he had to go threw a lot of challenges like about to die of hunger, thrist, and because he was going to get killed by some guys because mhe did not pay them. So later on he found himself with Rico. Then thye went together to the United States and after they croosed the frontier they found out that Rico´s brother´s job was stealing cars, and selling them. Then Rico and Victor found jobs. Then Rico decided to go back to Mexico.This book was wriiten by Will Hobbs.

    Review of Crossing the Wire by: Will Hobbs

    When I was seven years old I asked my dad how did he come to the. U.S. he said that he came by a plane another thing he said was that there are people who come by boats or by jumping the border. I am in eight grade now and my English teacher miss, brown told us that we were going have group reading. She showed us few books but I was really intrastate in Crossing the Wire by: Will Hobbs. The book reminded me of when I asked my dad how did he come to the. U.S. In Crossing the Wire there are two teen boys Rico reveres and victor floras. Victor has to take care of his whole family. Victor has two sisters and one brother and his mom. Victor is poor and Rico is rich. Rico has 15 brother and sisters. and he the smallest one in his family. They both try to cross in to U.S. they have to struggle lot of stuff to get there. But will they make it to the land of opportunity? I liked the book Crossing the Wire. I really think this is a good book for every one. I would give 5 stars to this book. This is the best book I ever read in my life. This book thought me that people are wiling to stake their lives for money. The age I would recommend is up to 20 year old. The book would be the best for kids who are in to adventure books.

    crossing the wire

    Have you ever read a book that made you real nervous? Well I have and it was called Crossing The Wire by Will Hobbs. The book is about two 15-year-old Mexicans trying to come to the US by hopping the border. The boys are named Rico and Victor. They want to come to the US to make money and have a better life. Victor is a poor kid and his father has died. Rico is the complete opposite. He is a rich kid who lived a decent life in Mexico. The first time they try crossing they don¿t cross together any they both get caught by the border patrol. When they get caught the border patrol takes them to the same city. Then finally they meet back up and plan to cross again. Crossing the border seems very harsh but Mexicans want over here really bad. In the book there are a lot of good parts but my favorite is when Rico and Victor meet back up in the city. That¿s my favorite part because now they can try crossing together. That¿s why I like that part. After all I think the book is great. I liked it so much I could never stop reading it and usually I think reading is really boring. I also had a few dislikes also and the main one was how it just all the sudden ended. I would recommend the book to people that are teens or older. The book is kind of unapproipate for some parents because some parts may be disturbing. Like there are parts where people are shooting each other and a few other bad things. But if your a teen or older and you like reading you should defiantly think about reading this great book.
