In the 1960s, political tension forces the Garcia family away from Santo Domingo and toward the Bronx. The sisters all hit their strides in America, adapting and thriving despite cultural differences, language barriers, and prejudice. But Mami and Papi are more traditional, and they have far more difficulty adjusting to their new country. Making matters worse, the girls-frequently embarrassed by their parents-find ways to rebel against them. A touching coming-of-age tale, this enthralling book perfectly illuminates the intergenerational struggles and multicultural clashes so common to the American immigrant family.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEAN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781419377952\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePackage Dimensions:\u003c\/b\u003e Height: 5.7 Inches, Length: 5.64 Inches, Weight: 0.52 Pounds, Width: 1.05 Inches\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguages:\u003c\/b\u003e en\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Alvarez, Julia","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46694424182939,"sku":"9781565129757","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0643\/2787\/6763\/files\/9547053482693.jpg?v=1750195309","url":"https:\/\/thebannedbook.shop\/products\/how-the-garcia-girls-lost-their-accents","provider":"The Banned Book Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
