Con este título se invita a los más pequeños a conocer una historia de David Unger sobre su infancia en Guatemala y cómo, junto con su familia, tuvo que abandonar su ciudad natal a causa de la guerra. Es un libro que cuenta la historia del autor, pero también la de muchos niños que se ven obligados a dejar sus países y enfrentar las dificultades que les representa adaptarse a otras culturas, con costumbres y hasta lenguas distintas.
Though this book is the familiar immigrant story of a family that has to leave its home and struggles to adapt to a new culture and a new language in a foreign country, it is also a tale of how children see the world and how the indifference of adults amplifies their fear and confusion.
