In the beginning
there is a little girl named Sophie she is the main character in the book she is also 12 just who lives with her aunt Tante Atie in Croix-des-Rosets, Haiti because her mother Martine lives in New York. just wanted to point how the author is giving the reader a better idea of who these characters are and what we will be reading about Sophie was raised by her aunt who couldn’t read she didn’t want to learn either she said she thought she was to old to learn already. Her aunt Tante doesn’t want for Sophie to see her as a mother figure this moment stood out to me because Sophie still wants Tante to see her as aunt instead of a mother because she still has a mom in New York and doesnt want to make it seem like shes taking her.
