How Tia Lola Came to (Visit) Stay by Julia Alvarez

4.0

This is a sweet middle grade story of how Miguel and his sister Juanita moved from New York to Vermont after their parents’ divorce. Soon their aunt visits from the DR. She is a friendly, kind character who enriches the lives of others. A quick read that exposes the reader to bits of DR culture and has sting themes of familia, home and belonging.
