Fat No More: A Teenager's Victory Over Obesity

"In this touching and often humorous memoir, a young Latino man from Texas recalls his childhood as the obese center of his extended family. Teenagers, and perhaps especially Latino readers, will relate to his struggles with family expectations and sabotage." -- Kevin Beach "VOYA"
"A timely account of a teen's success in losing weight and improving his health. Hidalgo-Robert describes in a conversational style how he became so heavy. An honest, emotional, and realistic personal narrative. A good choice for self-help reading or as a discussion book, this is a worthy motivational resource." -- Lynn Vanca "School Library Journal"
