Her heart was in Cuba, her mother's tropical island country, a place so lush with vibrant life that it seems like a fairy tale kingdom. But most of the time she lived in Los Angeles, lonely in the noisy city and dreaming of the summers when she can take a plane through the enchanted air to her beloved island. When the hostility between Cuba and the United States erupted at the Bay of Pigs Invasion, Engle's worlds collided in the worst way possible. Would she ever get to visit her beautiful island again? 546 $a Text in English. 586 $a Pura Belpre Author Award, 2016 600 11 $a Engle, Margarita. $0 (local)325128 650 1 $a Cuban Americans $v Biography. $0 (local)343541 650 1 $a Women authors, American $y 20th century $0 (local)291492 650 1 $a Women $v Biography. $0 (local)210346 650 1 $a Biographical poetry. $0 (local)343538 650 0 $a American poetry $v Juvenile literature. $0 (local)343536 655 7 $a Autobiographies. $2 lcgft $0 (local)335239 941 $a 5 952 $l BJPD251 $d 20211215013850.0 952 $l ZKPC437 $d 20210226010402.0 952 $l AQPC277 $d 20201212011442.0 952 $l POSX851 $d 20171024021200.0 952 $l AXPF626 $d 20170104011243.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=C75DF7DCD24B11E687060DD1DAD10320Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
