Summary
"An honest, realistic view of an important aspect of contemporary American life." --The Horn Book
First line
Right up till that very moment I didn't believe it would really happen.
From the rear cover
"We're off to a better future".
Felita's parents promise she will love the new neighborhood. Only Abuelita, her grandmother, understands how much Felita will miss her old block, and her best friend Gigi. But her new neighbors aren't nice at all. They taunt and tease Felita because her family is from Puerto Rico. When Felita's parents finally decide to move back to their old block, Felita is thrilled. Yet she soon finds that many things have changed while she's been away -- including herself.
