Between swapping stories about Cuba, sharing holiday celebrations, and Sofia learning more about costume design, the Acostas have never been more of a team.

Now Sofia wonders what the other neighbors in her tight-knit suburban town really think of immigrant families like hers. Sofia doesn't want to make a scene, but if she doesn't speak up, how will she figure out if her family really belongs.…
