This is the charming tale of one young girl's life in Havana, told in both English and Spanish.

It gives readers an understanding not only of what it is like to live in Cuba, but also the priority the country places on children and their development.

Simple to follow with colourful images, it's ideal for opening a window to young children on how their counterparts around the world live and how their lives compare. Many areas are covered such as families, schooling, food, national holidays and recreation with something new learnt on every page. A great start to exploring the rest of the world.
