A tender story about a bilingual girl finding her voice on the first day of school. Isabel sees the world in bright colors, and those colors help guide her through new faces, new words, and the swirl of emotions that come with starting somewhere unfamiliar. With expressive, heartfelt artwork, the book celebrates courage, connection, and the beauty of bringing your whole self into a new place.
