Critical Reviews
Critical 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.--Children's Literature
