This wordless picture graphic novel details Marisol's arrival in the United States from Cuba. Images show the challenges Marisol faces as she struggles to learn a new language and a new culture. The depiction of Marisol's life in this new world is depicted in high quality illustrations that do a fantastic job of depicting Marisol's new life in New York City.
I particularly love that the wordless nature of this book does such a phenomenal job of shadowing the struggles of attempting to live in a country where you do not speak the language. Without command of the language of the world she now lives in, Marisol's world is in many ways a wordless one.
I give this book 4 stars!
