As René’s teacher calls role one morning, René is dismayed to hear someone else answer to his name-a girl. "René has a girl’s name," his classmates tease. René is devastated until he learns that his name means "reborn" in French. In an essay for school he writes: "First, I was born in El Salvador, where I learned to write my name and speak my favorite language, Spanish. Now, I am born again, in the United States, where I learned to speak English." Full-color art. Bilingual text.
