Summary
A party? Oh no! Parties are full of tías with their flashy fashions and boom-and-bellow laughter. It's far too much for Martina! At least with all the noise, no one notices when she slips away. She finds herself in a magical place: a warm, familiar island where she can finally play in peace and quiet. Martina is home at last-- or is she? Lively and magical, this is a fresh retelling of the beloved Caribbean folktale "La Cucaracha Martina."
