Me Llamo Maria Isabel (Spanish Edition)
Reading Level: 4th − 5th Grade
Para María Isabel Salazar López lo más difícil de ser la alumna recién llegada a una nueva escuela es que la maestra no la llama por su nombre. --Ya tenemos dos Marías en esta clase--le dice la maestra. --¿Por qué no te llamamos Mary? Pero a María Isabel la llamaron así en recuerdo de la madre de su padre y de Chabela, su querida abuelita puertorriqueña. ¿Podrá hacerle comprender a la maestra que perder su nombre es perder la parte más importante de sí misma?
