“Lourdes knows. She understands, as only a mother can, the terror she is about to inflict, the ache Enrique will feel and finally the emptiness”(Nazario 1). When Enrique was only five years old, his mother Lourdes made the decision to leave her children and go north to the United States. There in the United States she hopes to find work and support her struggling family back in Honduras. In Enrique’s Journey by Sonia Nazario; a literacy non-fiction, Enrique at the age of 16 goes on a long journey from Honduras to try and find his mother Lourdes with nothing but her phone number, he is still heartbroken from her departure 11 years ago. In Antoine De Saint-Exupèry’s work of fiction titled the Little Prince; an allegory:, a pilot crashes in the Saharan desert, and meets a little boy who claims to be the prince of his planet on asteroid 325 or known by humans as B-612. While in the desert the little prince tells the pilot, his new friend, of his interactions with other various types of people around his neighboring planets. Enrique and the Pilot both learn about responsibility and what it takes to survive.
