A New York Public Library "Best Book for Kids"
Lo que Elisa, Lucía y Alice ven—y juzgan—desde afuera, la una en la otra, es drásticamente diferente de cómo cada niña se siente adentro. Asisten a las mismas clases en la misma escuela media de la Ciudad de Nueva York, pero nadie sabe que Elisa, recién llegada de El Salvador, está tratando de navegar el desconcertante proceso de solicitar asilo; o que Lucía, que también habla español y reboza de confianza en sí misma, está atrapada en el medio del desgarrador divorcio desus padres; o que Alice, que parece ser una rebelde con botas militares, lleva la carga del cáncer progresivo de su madre. En las tres partes narradas por cada niña, Newyorkinas captura la vulnerabilidad de ser alumno de la escuela media y el alivio y la felicidad de encontrar amistades en los lugares menos esperados.
What Elisa, Lucía, and Alice see–and judge–of each other from the outside is drastically different from how each girl feels inside. They attend the same classes in the same New York City middle school, but no one knows that Elisa is trying to navigate the bewildering asylum process having just arrived from El Salvador; or that Lucía, who also speaks Spanish and brims with self-confidence, is caught in the middle of her parents’ heartbreaking divorce; or that Alice, who appears to be a rebel in combat boots, carries the burden of her mother’s progressing cancer. Narrated by each girl in alternating chapters, City Girls captures the vulnerability of being amiddle schooler and the relief and joy of finding friendship where you least expect it.
