Finding Miracles

(4) YA Milly enjoys being considered "100 percent American" and rarely speaks of her foreign birth and adoption. When Pablo arrives from the (unnamed) Central American country of Milly's birth, she decides to travel with his family to recover her lost identity. While the secrecy surrounding Milly's adoption seems anachronistic, the emotional drama and touch of romance will appeal to teen readers.
