This is the story of a family that moved from a Spanish-speaking country to the USA and how they experienced changes in their lives. It illustrates the challenges and language barriers that second-language learners face in a foreign country. It also highlights their resilience in dealing with unsuccessful attempts to speak and correctly understand the new language, their efforts to adapt to their new environment, and their diligence in learning a new language while carrying out "simple tasks." The story helps readers develop empathy for people who are second-language learners.
