Author:Nancy Osa
Page read:1-26

My book Cuba 15 is writing by Nancy Osa. Violet Paz turned fifteen. Fifteen is the age when a girl is turning womanhood, and has to read a speech in front of your friends, family and all your nears or people. So she begins asking questions about her quinceniero birthday and also about her Cuban roots cultures and feelings collide in this though-provoking novel book.
As i said, my book Cuba 15 is about Violet a little girl entered fifteen, and as Cuban tradition she is turning a womanhood also. She begins asking questions about her speech and how the ceremony will have place. Some of the questions she began asking are:
_I really have to through with with this quince party?
Her mother answer clearly that she is suppose to,cause this is a tradition in Cuba. And tells her if she needs help she can talk about a story anybody can guess of.
_then she asks Her brother Abuela if she can her?
Her brother was please to help Violet. He said no. The first word he said was no,but the last word came out was Yes, forced.
By saying yes, he began a lovely story, that he was saying with pains,but proudly of the story.
For the continue of the story and the book,continue in my next post.
thanks.
