Los Personajes
Meet Diana & Tony
Diana
The Quiet Observer
Shy · Emotional · Soft pastel
Diana speaks Spanish at home, but she hasn't yet learned English for school. She feels completely cut off and embarrassed, and wants to disappear. She should be listening, but she's too afraid — trying to shut out English in case it makes her lose her Spanish.
"Sometimes my words feel like marbles in my pocket. I'm afraid if I open my hand, I'll lose them.""A veces mis palabras son como canicas en mi bolsillo."
Tony
The Bridge-Builder
Warm · Playful · Bold
Tony grew up sliding between English and Spanish like sunlight through trees. He carries a secret of his own — and he knows that sharing it makes it bigger, not smaller.
"I used to have a secret. Then I learned: a secret shared is a friend made.""Solía tener un secreto. Luego aprendí que un secreto compartido es un amigo ganado."
