The tragedy unfolds when both of Alicia's parents pass away in a horrible accident. However, Alicia survives and is later adopted by her godmother from the Church. Alicia's godmother enrolls her in a dual-language program in New York. She does well academically, but struggles with deep emotional feelings of hurt and despair when Mother's Day is celebrated towards the end of every school year. She cries and refuses to participate in any Mother's Day activities. One summer evening, when she was on vacation with Miss Runfío, she falls asleep and dreams about being taken to a faraway place called La Bellísima Ciudad. There she meets the king, who grants her a petition to see and be with her parents once again. Alicia is told by them to respect, love, and honor Miss Runfío who is now her mother. Alicia's fourth grade bilingual teacher, Mr. Anderson, introduces journal writing to meet her social and emotional needs of revealing the truth about the deep secret that she has kept for years. Finally, Alicia is motivated and encouraged to make a Mother's Day card with colorful flowers and a poem for Miss Runfio to express her love and appreciation for a wonderful mom; and as the story goes she lived happily ever after and never cried again on Mother's Day.
