Offered in 0 more formats"Liliana Cruz, una joven latina de primera generación, quiere encajar a toda costa en su nueva escuela, ubicada en un exclusivo vecindario de Boston. ¿Tendrá que cambiar su identidad, su nombre o hablar diferente para ser aceptada? Tratando de encontrar respuestas, choca con el muro que su madre ha levantado en casa desde que su padre se fue... otra vez; con el muro que separa a su diverso vecindario de su no tan diversa escuela y con la tensión racial que crece entre sus compañeros. En el camino, Liliana descubre unos cuantos secretos familiares. Además, aprende que un muro no siempre es una barrera. También puede ser una plataforma para decir su verdad."--Back cover.
It's fine that Lilliana's best friend, Jade, is all caught up in her new boyfriend lately. It's fine that her inner-city high school is disorganized and underfunded. It's fine that her father took off again, and she's left with her increasingly crazy mom, her heathen little brothers. But it turns out before he left, he signed Liliana up for a school desegregation program called METCO. At Westburg, Liliana-- half-Guatemalan and half-Salvadorian-- must struggle with being a minority. The only way to survive is to whiten up. When she discovers the truth about her father-- he's undocumented and he's been deported back to Guatemala-- nothing is fine. And Lili is done changing who she is, denying her culture and where she came from.--Adapted from jacket and Goodreads info
