Read the excerpts from The Red Umbrella by Christina Diaz Gonzalez.Excerpt 1"Fernando, I can work.” Mamá started to get up. "Take in some sewing. Maybe a little ironing.”"No, no. I won’t have my wife working. I’ll find something. Try to get some work as a handyman. See how that goes.”"But, Papá, can’t you convince them to give you another job . . . in an office?” I thought about how I’d never seen Papá fix anything around our house.Excerpt 2 He looked at me and Frankie. "They mentioned the kids several times. Said that Lucía needs to volunteer to work on the farms or join the brigades if she wants to finish her education. And Frankie’ll have to join the Pioneros group to learn all about the revolution." "No.” Mamá put her hands on her hips. "I won’t do that. There’s no way I’m sending my daughter away. Revolutionaries taking care of her. It’s absurd!”
