Historical Fiction Graphic Novel

During the revolution, Marisol's parents send her from her colorful home in Cuba to safety with a host family in Manhattan. My four year old daughter wasn't too young to understand the story with just a little help from me. This book handles a difficult topic with such hope and beauty.
