Five little brothers, two parents and a houseful of visiting relatives make a Mexican-American girl feel crowded. She loves her family, but how can she get a little space for herself? Told in both English and Spanish, this boldly illustrated title delivers the inspiring story of a family that pulled together to give a young girl her own corner of the world.
