Description
Set in the Bronx during the 1950s, when postwar immigrant children were placed in their first American classrooms, this delightful story tells of the riotous linguistic misunderstandings of Josephineâ?Ts first day of school. The daughter of savvy Italian engineers, Josephine has lived in the city long enough to have learned a few words in English, but is overcome when her teacher makes her stand up in front of the class and tell about her life in Italyâ?"in English, of course. The result is a charming tale of adventures and multicultural miscommunications as Josephine attempts to make herself understood. Children will come to understand that sometimes people underestimate the talents and dignity of newcomers to the United States and will embark on a poignant journey as Josephine tells her incredible story the best way she knows how and attempts to understand her English-speaking teacher and classmates.A Establecidos en el Bronx durante los aA`os A'50, cuando los niA`os inmigrantes de la posguerra fueron a sus primeras clases estadounidenses,esta encantadora historia relata los cA"micos problemas lingAoA?sticos que tuvo Josefina el primer dA?a de escuela. Hija de experimentados ingenieros italianos, Josefina ha vivido en la ciudad el tiempo suficiente como para haber aprendido algunas pocas palabras en inglA%s, pero se siente sobrepasada cuando la maestra le pide contar el relato de su vida en Italia a todos sus compaA`eros, por supuesto en inglA%s. El resultado es un encantador cuento de aventuras y desaciertos linguA?sticos y culturales producidos mientras Josefina intenta hacerse entender. Los niA`os entenderA?n que a veces la gente subestima los talentos y la dignidad de los reciA%n llegados a los Estados Unidos y empezarA?n una aventura al Josefina relatar su increA?ble historia de la mejor manera en que sabe hacerlo y mientras ella intenta comprender a su maestra y compaA`eros de habla inglesa.
