This is not an ordinary book: it's a BookCrossing book! BookCrossing books are world travelers - they like to have adventures and make new friends...and every once in a while they even write home to say what they've been doing.Ex-library book with a very colorful dust jacket: purchased via BWB.
Rosa knows her real name is Tzunún, and her parents nicknamed her Colibrí: both names mean hummingbird. When she was four, she visited Guatemala City with her parents and was kidnapped.
She was found by a man she calls Uncle, who told her he was unable to find her parents, and gave her a new name. Now she travels with him, helping him beg. She can barely remember any other life, but longs for her lost family, while Uncle holds on to the prediction that Rosa will lead him to treasure.

I'm so glad you've found this book!
Please take a moment to make a journal entry and let the book's previous readers know that it's safe with you.
How and where did you find the book? What did you think of it? What are you going to do with it next?
It's now your book, for you to do with as you please: keep it, pass it to a friend, or maybe even leave it where someone else can find it!
If you've ever wondered where your books go after they leave your hands, join BookCrossing and you may find out: you'll be able to follow the further adventures of your books as new readers make journal entries - sometimes from surprisingly far-flung locations.
(Think of it like Where's George for books: a little like geocaching or a treasure hunt - you can follow a registered book's journey every time someone makes a new entry. Some BookCrossers even leave books *in* geocaches!)
BookCrossing: making the whole world a library!
