    About the Book

    She was little, quick, and pretty, and her mother called her Colibrí—Spanish for "hummingbird." At age four she was snatched from her parents on a crowded bus in Guatemala City. Ever since, she has wandered the roads with "Uncle," an ex-soldier and beggar who renamed her Rosa and insists her family can never be found. But Rosa still remembers, still hopes, and still dreams of going home. Ann Cameron's moving novel set in Guatemala explores courage, identity, and the unbreakable pull of family.
