About the Book

When Maria Isable Salazar Lopez enters a new school, her teacher insists on calling her Mary. But Maria Isabel has been named after her Papa's mother and her beloved Puerto Rican grandmother. She just can't see herself as Mary. How can she find the courage to make her teacher understand? A Christopher Award-winning author tells the compelling story of a little girl's decision to stand up for her own identity.

Book Synopsis

Para María Isabel Salazar López lo más difícil de ser la alumna recién llegada a una nueva escuela es que la maestra no la llama por su nombre. --Ya tenemos dos Marías en esta clase--le dice la maestra. --¿Por qué no te llamamos Mary?

Pero a María Isabel la llamaron así en recuerdo de la madre de su padre y de Chabela, su querida abuelita puertorriqueña. ¿Podrá hacerle comprender a la maestra que perder su nombre es perder la parte más importante de sí misma?
