520    "Pura Belpre Honor winner for The Revolution of Evelyn 
       Serrano and one of America's most influential Hispanics--
       'Maria' on Sesame Street--delivers a beautifully wrought 
       coming-of-age memoir. Set in the 1950s in the Bronx, this 
       is the story of a girl with a dream. Emmy award-winning 
       actress and writer Sonia Manzano plunges us into the daily
       lives of a Latino family that is loving--and troubled. 
       This is Sonia's own story rendered with an unforgettable 
       narrative power. When readers meet young Sonia, she is a 
       child living amidst the squalor of a boisterous home that 
       is filled with noisy relatives and nosy neighbors. Each 
       day she is glued to the TV screen that blots out the 
       painful realities of her existence and also illuminates 
       the possibilities that lie ahead. But--click!--when the TV
       goes off, Sonia is taken back to real-life--the cramped, 
       colorful world of her neighborhood and an alcoholic 
       father. But it is Sonia's dream of becoming an actress 
       that keeps her afloat among the turbulence of her life and
       times. Spiced with culture, heartache, and humor, this 
       memoir paints a lasting portrait of a girl's resilience as
       she grows up to become an inspiration to millions"--
