Enrique's Journey and "The Children of the Drug Wars" by Sonia Nazario are both nonfiction texts about the dangerous journeys of immigrant children. What should be added to this thesis statement to make it stronger?

subtopics to be covered in the essay.

Explanation:

A thesis statement is one sentence that briefly (but precisely) describes the main claim of an essay. Ideally, it should also include the main topics that will be discussed in body paragraphs.

In this thesis statement, it is correctly stated that these two texts share the same theme. In order to make it even stronger, the author needs to mention the subtopics that will be elaborated later in the text. For instance, the migration which happens due to drug wars could be mentioned, as well as child immigration.

- "the die is cast; i have consented to return if we are not destroyed. thus are my hopes blasted by cowardice and indecision; i come back ignorant and disappointed. it requires more philosophy than i possess to bear this injustice with patience. i have lost my hopes of utility and glory; i have lost my friend."

and your question what topic are you in trouble with?
