"Maé, mom," Rosie asked, "why are you sad?"
Rosie's mother wiped a tear from her cheek and smiled at her daughter.
"Oh Rosie, I was on the phone with your grandmother, Avózinha," her mother explained, "It's just saudade."
"What does that mean, Maé?" Rosie asked.
"Sometimes missing my island makes me feel sad," Rosie's mom said.

Follow Rosie on her journey to the Azores, where she learns about her Portuguese ancestry and the meaning of "saudade."
