"City kid Santiago is heading to Hillside Valley for the summer! Santi's excited to meet the local kids, play soccer, eat his grandmother's delicious food, and explore. And the kids he meets are really cool--Sol (the soccer-playing bookworm), Willie, (the artist), Alejandro (Santi's unofficial tour guide), and Nico (well, Nico's complicated!). The only problem is, Santi doesn't speak Spanish that well, and it feels like everyone he meets in Hillside Valley does. What if he can't keep up?! Does that mean he's not Colombian enough? Santi's sick of being self-conscious. But are his new friends--and maybe even his own family--going to judge him? And will his worries cost him the chance to play in Hillside's summer soccer tournament?"--Page 4 of cover
