Daisy, a young girl living in Corona, California, waits patiently for her father to come home from work so they can ride around their city on his motorcycle. They pass her favorite things: a raspado shop, her grandparents’ house, her Dad’s construction site, and a tortilla shop. Daisy and her father have a special bond, and this story shares their loving relationship. This story is also a love letter to a town that was built by Mexican immigrant working class people.
