Who
knows where Cuba is? Alma Flor Ada takes us to Cuba and describes
her memories as a little girl there. You will feel like you are right
there feeling everything she is. As you read you will be able to
see the photos of her family and friends which make it come to life even
more. We all have fun times in our lives and we also have tragedies
happen. Alma Flor Ada describes her Uncle's plane crash and I thought
I was right there. To see what Cuba is like and Alma's memories of
her childhood you must read "Under the Royal Palms" by Alma Flor Ada. (Karen
