Product Description
For Maria Isabel Salazar Lopez, the hardest thing about being the new girl in school is that the teacher doesn't call her by her real name. "We already have two Marias in this class," says her teacher. "Why don't we call you Mary instead?"But Maria Isabel has been named for her Papa's mother and for Chabela, her beloved Puerto Rican grandmother. Can she find a way to make her teacher see that if she loses her name, she's lost the most important part of herself?

 Maria Isabel May 24, 2008
I bought this book to share with my third grade students. Our topic for the month was social issues, and Maria Isabel was the perfect book. We were able to talk about her feelings and compare them to our own. Wonderful read. Highly recommend to anyone!!
 a little cheese with your whine? December 17, 2007
Whiny main character - oh no, she doesn't get a part in the play! Not a likable character at all. An excerpt is in our class anthology - students were bored and uninterested.
My Review November 29, 2006
Maria Isabel by Alma Flor Ada was a joyful book. It made me think of my sister. Maria Isabel has a hard time at school because the teacher called her a new name because her name was too long. I liked the book because it was a delightful book and it always had adventures. I would recommend this book to girls because they would love this book.

 my name is maria isabel September 28, 2005
The book is basicly a pretty good book.It probaly has every thing a bookshould have.But in this book Maria Isabel is new to her school and there is another Maria in the class.So her teacher has been calling her Mary.Maria Isabel doesn't aswer to the teacher because she is calling her Mary and she likes to be called Maria Isabel Salazar Lopez. And at the end there is a big surprise waiting for her.
