Cuando el sindicato de conserjes organiza una huelga para exigir mejores salarios, Carlitos descubre una manera en que le puede ayudar a su madre en este poderoso libro ilustrado bilingüe. Carlitos's mother is a janitor. Every night, he sleeps while his mother cleans one of the skyscrapers in downtown L.A. When she comes home, she waves Carlitos off to school before she goes to sleep. One night, his mamá explains that she can't make enough money to support him and his abuelita the way they need unless she makes more money as a janitor. She and the other janitors have decided to go on strike. Will he support her and help her all he can? Of course, Carlitos wants to help but he cannot think of a way until his teacher, Miss Lopez, explains in class how her own grandfather had fought for better wages for farmworkers when he first came to the United States. Finally, Carlitos knows how he can show his mamá how proud he is of her. He and the other children in his class make posters and Carlitos joins the marchers with a very special sign for his mom! Backmatter includes an interview by Luis J. Rodriguez (Always Running), discussing the real "Justice for Janitors" strike in 2000 with a union organizer who participated, as well as a poem inspired by it. La mamá de Carlitos es conserje.

Claro, Carlitos quiere ayudar, pero no sabe cómo hasta que ve a su mamá en la televisión dando un discurso en favor de la huelga.
