When she learns that Mami is expecting a baby, Juana finds a way to rise to the occasion (despite a few stumbles at skating camp ) in a third episode filled with humor and warmth.
I agree with my abuelos–I think I will be a VERY good older hermana. Even when I am not the most patient human being on earth. . . .Juana’s life in Bogot , Colombia, is just about perfect. Every now and then a big problema comes along–like having to learn English or Juana’s mami getting remarried–but things eventually settle down, and life goes back to feeling pretty perfect again. But then Mami springs two new sorpresas on Juana. One: Juana will be spending her school break going to skating camp instead of relaxing (even though she doesn’t know how to skate ). Two: Mami is going to have a baby How can one Juana-size person possibly handle SO. MANY. CHANGES? The answer: with the gentle love of Mami and Luis, the guidance of Juana’s abuelos, the sympathy of newfound friends, the ready ear of her furry amigo Lucas, and Juana’s own expansive heart.
