JOSEFINA, 1824


Josefina Montoya is a nine-year-old growing up on a rancho in Santa Fe, New Mexico, which wasn't yet a state in 1824 --- it was still a part of Mexico. It's been a year since her mother died, but Josefina, her Papa and her three older sisters --- Ana, Francisca and Clara --- are all carrying on, coping with their sadness and loss. But things begin to look brighter when Abuelito, Josefina's grandfather, returns to the Montoya rancho with a surprise: Tia Dolores, Josefina's aunt.
