Adventures of an M.K. in Uruguay (not a picture book)

Adventures of an M.K. in Uruguay

A short chapter book and not a picture book.

Excerpt:

What would it be like to live where...

you could sleep until noon and go to school for just half a day?
you didn't understand what anyone was saying, and they didn't understand you?
VBS and Christmas came at the same time of year?
you could go to the beach in January and never catch cold?

Linda de Gonzalez lived in a place like that! Share her adventures!
