It was fun to read a book about the communist movement in an area other than Asia. I need to study South and Central America more than I do. This was a good start. It was a really easy Young Adult book. She writes in journal form and records the first year of her life in the US. I wish it had spent more time in Cuba, but it was interesting to read about the transition her family makes in their new country. I didn't realize how many Cubans live in Florida. She said thousands come each week. The other thing I found interesting was their desire to have the US step in and invade their country. Several times she mentions their want for us to leave Vietnam and enter Cuba. Overall, it was an alright book.
