La Bellísima Ciudad

Sinopsis del Libro

The tragedy unfolds when both of Alicias parents pass away in a horrible accident. However, Alicia survives and is later adopted by her godmother from the Church. Alicias godmother enrolls her in a dual-language program in New York. She does well academically, but struggles with deep emotional feelings of hurt and despair when Mothers Day is celebrated towards the end of every school year. She cries and refuses to participate in any Mothers Day activities. One summer evening, when she was on vacation with Miss Runfo, she falls asleep and dreams about being taken to a faraway place called La Bellsima Ciudad. There she meets the king, who grants her a petition to see and be with her parents once again. Alicia is told by them to respect, love, and honor Miss Runfo who is now her mother. Alicias fourth grade bilingual teacher, Mr. Anderson, introduces journal writing to meet her social and emotional needs of revealing the truth about the deep secret that she has kept for years. Finally, Alicia is motivated and encouraged to make a Mothers Day card with colorful flowers and a poem for Miss Runfio to express her love and appreciation for a wonderful mom; and as the story goes she lived happily ever after and never cried again on Mothers Day.

Almost immediately they began to circulate on the network, converted into screenshots. Their privacy was very fragile, and they did not want to see it. These are imaginary stories that seem real, fictitious cases that, being so close, are more like a testimony. Guilty and innocent who trusted the other, who were wrong about the other. Sexting, sextortion, cyberbullying, and more. Screenshot: reveal how a useful and innocent tool can become a lethal weapon in an...
