About the Book

Basada en las experiencias reales de la madre de Alexandra Diaz como una refugiada cubana en los Estados Unidos, una historia oportuna y conmovedora de la familia, la amistad, y la lucha por un futuro mejor.

A Victoria le encanta su hogar en Cuba con la tierra hermosa, la deliciosa comida, su mejor amiga y prima, Jackie y toda su amorosa y numerosa familia.

Pero es el año 1960 y la situación política se está haciendo cada vez más peligrosa. Victoria, sus padres y sus dos hermanos menores tienen que salir como refugios a los Estados Unidos. Lo peor es que tienen que dejar atrás al resto de su familia incluyendo a Jackie.

Todo es muy diferente en Miami (Florida). Victoria ayuda a su familia a establecerse en esta nueva vida con la esperanza de que no van a estar ahí por mucho tiempo. En Cuba, nada tampoco sigue igual. Jackie ve como sus compañeros y los vecinos huyen y desaparecen. Cuando su familia se entera de la Operación Peter Pan, un programa financiada con fondos de los Estados Unidos, que está sacando a los menores de Cuba, los padres de Jackie deciden mandarla para Miami.

Una vez que Victoria y Jackie se vuelven a reunir, ellas esperan que el resto de su familia pueda salir de Cuba sano y salvo. Solo el tiempo dirá.
