Summary:"Between 1936 and 1939, a civil war raged across Spain. When fascist dictator Francisco Franco declared victory, he began to persecute everyone who had once opposed him. Spain became a country of secrets, where anyone who was different was in danger. Different explores this dark chapter of world history through the voices of seven-year-old Socorro and nine-year-old Paco. Because their father has fled Spain due to his political beliefs, the siblings and their mother must hide the truth in order to survive. Franco's soldiers are always watching. Even school isn't safe anymore. Finally a letter from Papa arrives, with a chance for a new life in Venezuela..." -- Page 4 of cover.
