The Red Umbrella is a moving tale of a 14-year-old girl's journey from Cuba to America as part of Operation Pedro Pan - an organized exodus of more than 14,000 unaccompanied children, whose parents sent them away to escape Fidel Castro's revolution.

In 1961, two years after the Communist revolution, Lucía Álvarez still leads a carefree life, dreaming of parties and her first crush. But when the soldiers come to her sleepy Cuban town, everything begins to change. Freedoms are stripped away. Neighbors disappear. And soon, Lucía's parents make the heart-wrenching decision to send her and her little brother to the United States - on their own. Suddenly plunked down in Nebraska with well-meaning strangers, Lucía struggles to adapt to a new country, a new language, a new way of life. But what of her old life? Will she ever see her home or her parents again? And if she does, will she still be the same girl? The Red Umbrella is a touching story of country, culture, family, and the true meaning of home.

I’m so glad that my daughter had to read this book in school. I’ve heard a version of this story from my Cuban friends, and this paints the picture so eloquently for children and preteens. This book was beautifully written and should be required reading in Miami-Dade county.

Touching and true

I don’t normally write reviews, but I enjoyed this story immensely. And the narrator’s performance was superb (and I’m picky about that). Highly recommend. I hope this author and narrator will do more!

Excellent!!

This book is a must if you live in South Florida. It shows the struggle that the Cuban families endured at the beginning of the communist regimen. It also highlights operation "pedro pan" and how young children were sent to the USA by their Cuban families to escape the regimen. Mind blowing book.

amazing!

The Red Umbrella presents the reality of socialist communism within a beautifully told coming-of-age story. I highly recommend this book to young adults for a clear picture of the freedom found in America vs. the servitude inflicted on those who live in communist countries. In addition, the narrator does a masterful job of conveying both the emotions and the accents of the various characters. Well done!
