The story, My Diary from Here To There, written by Amanda Irma Perez, talks about a girl’s diary writing about her family moving from her small, beloved town in Mexico, to California. At night, Amada hears about her family’s moving, and she is scared to move. In her head there are many things spinning, and she is worried that things might not go as well as her parents thought it would. The next day, her parents announce their moving plan. Amada’s best friend Michi tries to comfort her, but she still feels uneasy about the whole thing. Her Papa comforts her, and tells of his own experience. In the end, they successfully move to California. Throughout the story, we learn things along with Amada.
Parents will always comfort kids when they are unhappy or worried about things, and tell them not to worry. Things can get bad for the whole family, but it’s a good thing that they’re all together. In the story, Amada’s family is moving but Amada is very very worried about their moving. Papa notices it and tells of his own experience in life when he was a small boy, when he moved to Mexico. It comforted Amada and encouraged her that the family will be okay, and safe. Papa comforted that Amada can be stronger than she thinks, and she finally could prove it true at the end. Adults are seemingly stronger than youngsters, so it’s their duty to always comfort youths and make them seem safe.
Children’s feelings about being immigrants won’t be as sure as parents, but when they are convinced that they are safe they will be more confident. Moving can worry children, because the whole family is taking a big risk, and there are chances that the moving will not go well. In the story, Amada is really worried when she first hears about moving. Slowly, throughout the story, Amada’s feelings calm down. Being an immigrant can be worrying, and there are many things to think about, and not only good ones, too. Amada is scared to move, but slowly in the story Amada is slowly convinced that she’s stronger than she thinks. Kids feelings about moving will be shaky, but in a while they get over it.
People with the American Dream are immigrants who wish to move to America. People moving are called immigrants, as they immigrate to other places to live. In the story, Amada and her family are immigrants that have the American Dream, a dream to live happily in America. People have the American Dream because America has many more opportunities than most other small countries that have not got many jobs and places to live in. But still, the American Dream isn’t as easy as it seems. Even though the American Dream helps many people, it is still hard to achieve because there are many families who want it, so many will have to wait. Immigrants having the American Dream will move from their own place to America.
In conclusion, the story, My Diary From Here To There talks about a family who are moving to California from their own little house in Mexico. Along the story, we learn many things with the girl, Amada. First, we learn that guardians usually will comfort kids when they are upset or worried about something, because it’s their responsibility. Second, if a family moves, the children would be usually worried that things will not go as planned. Third, many families who has the American Dream, or are moving, are called immigrants. They move to America or other countries. I really recommend this story, My Diary from Here To There, because it teaches us a lot about immigrants and their life.
