I cannot express how adorable this little picture book is! Isabella is about to start her first day at a school in the US. She recently moved from Columbia and is super excited about making new friends. Unfortunately, she wakes up on her first day to find a snowstorm and school has been cancelled. She meets a neighbor friend and they have fun all day together! I loved this so much! I loved that the girls played together and were able to understand each other without speaking the same language. I loved that there was no prejudice or fear of someone new. They were just kids! I loved it so much. I loved the Spanish mixed in! I just thoroughly enjoyed it!
