Summary |
"An illustrated picture book autobiography in which award-winning author Yuyi Morales tells her own immigration story"--Provided by publisher. |
|
"What if you dreamed of a new life, and it came to you? What if that new life led you to a new country, where no one spoke your language, where you felt alone and ignored? What if you had to make that new place your home? What if you found that home in a world of books? And what if it all were true?"--Jacket. |
