The Skirt Paperback - 1997
by Gary Soto
Miata Ramirez is heartsick. She brought her folklorico skirt to school and left it on the bus. Miata can't let her parents know she's lost something again, and she needs the skirt for her dance group performance. This 1994-95 Texas Bluebonnet Award nominee captures the spirit, pride, and traditions of a contemporary Mexican-American family.
First line
After stepping off the bus, Miata Ramirez turned around and gasped, "Ay!"
From the jacket flap

Can Miata and her friend Ana rescue the precious skirt in time? A warm-hearted story about a contemporary Mexican-American family.
