Reviews
Set within a pleasing, candy-colored palette and evocatively expressive characters, Latina Cici is wholly likable, and her real-life concerns play out well juxtaposed with her more whimsical ones. A thoughtful and entertaining mix of fantasy and real-world problems.

Young readers will love the magic and appreciate the problems Cici must face and overcome.
