Book Description
The grand proponent of wild, Texas chupacabras, the lover of fantastic, comic book characters, and the advocate of last century's monsters, all in the form of sometimes experimental poetry is at it again and there is no human, super or otherwise, on this tiny, blue Earth that can stop him. Is he a super-speculative genius trapped in what the unassuming think is a common poet? You hear him read live and you might start to wonder what a marvel he really is. Enjoy this very creative and speculative, poetry book that is not just a fast read but a kick in the pants of what poetry can also be like. In Sex, Lies, And Chupacabras, Juan Manuel Perez gives a powerful voice to several shadowy figures, namely one Speedy Gonzales, a love-sick werewolf, and the creature who Juan has championed for so many years, El Chupacabra. Named the Poet Laureate of the most misunderstood cucuy ever, Juan has gathered in this collection four multi-piece works, each varying in tone but they are all in their own way very powerful and fun.

Book Description
Moses Vargas hates his life. He has been forced to move four times in as many years, and he’s tired of starting at another school, having everyone stare at him and trying to make new friends. Most of all, he doesn’t want to have to deal with questions about his father—an inmate in the California Department of Corrections. When Moses discovers that someone has been sending out text messages with a photo of him and his father in a prison uniform, he ends up in a fight and then suspended for three days. School counselor Ray Gutiérrez reaches out to Moses, inviting him to an after-school support program called Círculos for students dealing with absentee fathers. Moses grudgingly attends the sessions that draw on indigenous and cultural roots to empower the boys. Realizing he is not the only one with a problematic home life—and the new friendship of a pretty classmate whose father is also in prison—helps Moses to begin talking about his anger and embarrassment. But will he really be able to overcome his resentment towards his father? The tenth installment in Velásquez’s acclaimed Roosevelt High School Series that focuses on social issues relevant to teens, Forgiving Mosesaddresses the painful issue of children, particularly brown and black youth, whose fathers are not present in their lives. Touching on the disproportionately high number of men of color in prison and its effects on society, this short novel for teens will generate conversations about the possible consequences of making bad choices, responsibility to family and the impact of incarceration.
