Description
Un cuento oportuno y conmovedor sobre la incertidumbre que siente una joven cuando deportan a su padre--y la empatía que crece cuando compartimos y nos escuchamos unos a los otros. Cuando el papá de Estrella tiene que irse porque no nació aquí como ella, Estrella lo extraña. Ella desea que la gente supiera como le afecta. En su casa. En la escuela. Siempre. Su escuela rodea un roble centenario, y ese árbol es el lugar perfecto para compartir. Algunos niños extrañan a su familia, algunos niños tienen hambre, algunos viven en refugios. Pero nadie está solo si otros están dispuestos a escuchar. Un cuento sobre la deportación, familias separadas, y la importancia de comunicad en momentos de incertidumbre.
