The ending: The ending is very sad they get deported back to Mexico. The border patrol arrives to where the mom and dad are they capture them. Then they go to school where Pancho was and they got him to. In my opinion the story was very good. Other people might disagree and others might agree. My favorite part of the story was when Pancho got in a fight with Curtis. They fought over a sweater. Curtis claimed that the sweater was and that he had lost it in the beginning of the year. It is a very good book  I recommend reading it.
