Finally her parents are ready for her to join their fabulous life in America! Except it's not exactly like in the postcards:1. School's a lot harder than she thought.When she mispronounces some words in English on the first day she decides she simply won't talk. Ever again.2. Her chatty little sister has no problem with English. And seems to do everything better than Lina including knowing exactly the way to her parents' hearts.3.
