This book is full of wonders and interesting ideas. When tia Lola came to visit no one expected ehr to be a change in their lifes,especially Miguel. Not only does he have to go through his parents divorcing but a exotic aunt comes to stay!! I learned about the dominican culture and its background. This book taught me the significance of hope that things will look better.
