Audible read. Great voiceactors.

This was so great and meaningful to experience in so many ways. The world building is fantastic and felt like i was traveling with her. The characters were so multi layered with the depth of an onion in a well. Beautiful depiction of such a difficult time within a genuinely believable child's lens. 

I only wish the timeline was a bit more clear as to exactly when this was comparatively taking place fictionally versus historically in chile.

Abuela Frida is actually an icon!
Also Tia Graciela, querida, come back even if it's just to visit please!
