In a home where shouting replaces lullabies, young Jazmín retreats to her quiet room, a safe place amid the chaos. Dolls line the shelves, dresses hang neatly in the closet, and at the foot of her bed sits a Snoopy suitcase, her secret companion. Each night, as her parents’ arguments echo through the door, Jazmín imagines her “escape plans” using her suitcase. She envisions what she would pack: one night, her favorite doll, pajamas, and toothbrush; another, her storybook and long dress; another, her sketchbook and box of crayons. The Snoopy suitcase becomes a vessel of comfort, taking Jazmín far from reality. What begins as a childhood game becomes, in time, the very tool she turns to when life grows difficult.

Through these difficult nightly rituals, young Jazmín doesn’t realize that she is developing tools she will rely on in her adult life."
