Merci Suárez is a clever sixth-grader who is trying to make sense of the world. She lives with her family in Florida, US. Merci is extremely proud of her family and Cuban heritage. Her life takes a sudden turn when she is awarded a scholarship to a top private school.

To make matters worse, her responsibilities at home start piling up. She has to take care of her cousins and her grandfather, who has Alzheimer’s disease.
