Bookroo's summary

Isabel faces the daunting challenge of starting at a new school where English feels foreign and unfriendly. As she navigates her first day, she discovers unexpected ways to bridge the language gap and make friends. Will she find her voice in a sea of unfamiliar words, or will she uncover a different path to connection? Dive into a heartwarming tale of overcoming barriers and finding friendship in unexpected places.

From the publisher

English, with its blustery blues and whites, just feels wrong to Isabel. She prefers the warm oranges and pinks of Spanish. As she prepares for class at a new school, she knows she’s going to have to learn–and she would rather not! Her first day is uncomfortable, until she discovers there’s more than one way to communicate with friends. This is a universal story about feeling new and making new friends.
