I Lived on Butterfly Hill by Marjorie Agosín

4.0

This is a beautifully written story of a young girl whose parents must go into hiding when a dictator takes over the government of Chile. Soon after she is sent to live with her Tia in Maine. The 1st part of this book was gripping and hard, but it lost me in the middle, with what felt more like a traditional middle school narrative. I think it is to be recommended, though daunting at 450 pages.
