A new novel from the award-winning author of AN ISLAND LIKE YOU, winner of the Pura Belpre Award.

While her mother remains on the island, Maria lives with her father, the super of their building. As she struggles to lose her island accent, Maria does her best to find her place within the unfamiliar culture of the barrio.
