Description

Apolonia "Lina"Flores is a volleyball player, really a sock fanatic, a technology fan, and a woman whois simply searching for solutions. Despite the fact that her home is packed saturated in books (her dad's a bibliophile), she's having difficulty determining some very large issues, like why her dad appears to worry about books significantly more than her, why her closest friend's separated mom is preoccupied with building cascarones (hollowed eggshells filled with decorative images), and, primarily, why her mom died this past year. Like shades in cascarones, Linais existence is just a range of hobbies, individuals, and unforeseen changes.In her first book for young readers, Diana López produces an intelligent and truthful tale in regards to a young Latina woman moving increasing problems in her South Texan town.
