Publisher Description

Julia Alvarez's heartwarming novel now in Spanish.

Moving to Vermont after his parents split, Miguel has plenty to worry about!

Like her stories for adults, Julia Alvarez's first middle-grade book sparkles with magic as it illuminates a child's experiences living in two cultures.

"This is a great young adult book. It is much easier to read than Garcia Girls or In the TIme of the Butterflies. It's interesting for students to feel stronger in English than Spanish and sometimes take heat for it. For the multilingual students, it's a constant challenge."
