Reviews

  • After her family comes to the U.S., a school-age girl describes all of her experiences as “Not like home” or “Just like home,” until she feels “at home.”…Useful for libraries serving Latino communities with a need for bilingual bibliotherapy on the subject of immigration.

    - Booklist

  • The child’s viewpoint is conveyed through folkloric-style illustrations accompanied by a succinct, lively text in both Spanish and English.

    - The Horn Book Guide

  • Many children new to life in the United States will take courage form the girl’s gradual assimilation into an urban situation.
