Summary A young boy tells of his family's life in Haiti and their escape to America. We have trouble," Jean Paul whispered. "There is nothing ahead but rough water. We are sailing into a storm." "We can't turn back," Papi replied. "If we do, we will be killed." Jean Paul nodded. "Better to die here than there." I felt my body turn to stone. Giant goose bumps popped up on my skin. Inside, I felt as cold and slimy as the fish I had eaten.
