The "Underdog Bet" is a journey of kindness and discovery of ourselves and of others. It is the plight of all of us, in the world, in the Universe to be heard and accepted as we are; for us to look at ourselves and those around us no matter how big or small and listen with an open heart and an open mind. Sara Castañeda's poetry embraces that we have insecurities, fears and dreams in common. And by doing so we find love in everything, everywhere, all around us. Through these poetic stories told with humor and humanity, "Underdog Bet" brings in the light, and the payoff is well worth the gamble. "Reading Sara Castañeda's poetry is a magical experience. Lyrical in nature, her topics range from whimsy to profound. Her ability to arrange words with such purpose and meaning is second to none. Underdog Bet is a gift to the reader that keeps on giving."
