Using powerful symbolism, author and illustrator Mir Cortez Cáceres skillfully highlights the negative preconceptions that many children in foster care experience. The story sheds light on the stark reality faced by those who seek safety in a world that may not always accept them. However, amidst these challenges, Nani discovers the true power of her gifts, realizing that they are not a burden but a pathway to greatness.
