| book description |

Ximena, chronically ill, spends hours in bed looking at picture books, thinking, dreaming. Her imagination stimulated by stories, she confuses fantasy with everyday existence. Forced to piece together snippets of information gleaned from her parents' conversations and her own observations, she forms a not-quite-coherent picture of life in the Andes. But her world begins to change and Ximena begins to awaken from the muddle of her fantasies and realities to her complexities and to society's prejudices.
