The Red Umbrella is the moving tale of a 14-year-old girl's journey from Cuba to America as part of Operation Pedro Pan, an organized exodus of more than 14,000 unaccompanied children, whose parents sent them away at the beginning of the revolution. Suddenly plunked down in Nebraska with well-meaning strangers, Lucía struggles to adapt to a new country, a new language, and a new way of life. But will she ever see her home or her parents again?
