Sing it like Celia
2024
Book
"Twelve-year-old Salva Sanchez has always been a fan of Celia Cruz, also known as 'the queen of salsa.' Her love of Celia stems from her mother, who leaves Salva without explanation one awful day. Now Salva is stuck with her investigative journalist father in an RV campground. In the middle of nowhere. As Salva acclimates to her new environment and desperately tries to figure out why her mother left, she befriends a posse of campground kids who have started a band. When the kids discover that Salva has an amazing singing voice, they convince her to join their group. Soon, Salva learns how to find her voice-and herself-with the help of her newfound friends, her dad, and the one and only Celia Cruz." --publisher's website
