From the prolific author of The Moon Within comes the heart-wrenchingly beautiful story in verse of a young Latinx girl who learns to hold on to hope and love even in the darkest of places: a family detention center for migrants and refugees.Nine-year-old Betita knows she is a crane. Papi has told her the story, even before her family fled to Los Angeles to seek refuge from cartel wars in Mexico. The Aztecs came from a place called Aztlan, what is now the Southwest US, called the land of the cranes. They left Aztlan to establish their great city in the center of the universe-Tenochtitlan, modern-day Mexico City. It was prophesized that their people would one day return to live among the cranes in their promised land. Papi tells Betita that they are cranes that have come home.
Then one day, Betita's beloved father is arrested by Immigration Customs Enforcement (ICE) and deported to Mexico. Betita and her pregnant mother are left behind on their own, but soon they too are detained and must learn to survive in a family detention camp outside of Los Angeles. Even in cruel and inhumane conditions, Betita finds heart in her own poetry and in the community she and her mother find in the camp. The voices of her fellow asylum seekers fly above the hatred keeping them caged, but each day threatens to tear them down lower than they ever thought they could be. Will Betita and her family ever be whole again?

Pretty good...
Color: Red
Red color is kind of an orange-red. Hm... Came with some kind of dust on it. Once cleaned off it's not as slippery, yet still slips on just fine. Protects the remote - and your hands from the remote's hard edges. The raised bumps on the back make it easier to pickup - without digging your fingernails into cushions or carpets as you "scoop."

Very handy to have to spot them easily
Color: Dark Blue
Love the cases, have a different color on each rooms tv. Hopefully it will protect from a drop as that is what prompted me to buy it. We cracked the screen on our last remote and they are expensive to replace. Good price

THESE TWO REMOTE CADDIES ARE FANTASTIC
Color: Beige, Color: Beige
I bought both of these caddies.
Picture 1 shows it in my living room - TV Remote, Cable Remote, Ceiling Fan Remote and glasses. I love the little handle that I can pick up when I need to clean the glass table.
Picture 2 shows the three slot remote. I put this in bed with me at night. I am older now and I need my phone on my bed at night so in this caddy I have my phone and ceiling remote fan. Also it is a good weight so it will not fall.
These caddies are so well built and so nice to look at. If you need a remote caddy you will love either of these.

Perfect!
Color: Beige
This is everything it appears to be in the picture. It's perfect. it's practical. The one that looks similar but comes on a rotating lazy Susan base is very small in the holders or pockets I don't recommend it.
