Publisher's Synopsis
Have you ever moved to another country? New language, strange food, weird people, and different places can all be overwhelming for an adult. But for a young child, it can be both fascinating and scary altogether. Join five year-old Annie as she learns and explore America, and at the same time, enjoy learning about her native country of the Philippines, culture, and language. Annie just moved to America, and one of the challenges she has to face is going to a new school. She is anxious and afraid. But as she gets to know her teacher and class, she soon warms up to them. Before long, the class is learning the alphabet and how to count to ten in her mother tongue---Tagalog. At the end of the day, Annie is very happy and cannot wait to go to school the next day.
