School Library Journal Best of the Year
BCCB Best of the Year (Blue Ribbon Selection)


A beautiful slice-of-life story that isThis One Summer meets Ursula K. Le Guin''sVery Far Away from Anywhere Else, told in flashbacks

16-year-old Raquel lives in a small town in Portugal, the kind of place where everyone knows everyone else''s business. Her parents are divorced and she''s just been suspended for cursing out a school aide asking about her father''s new marriage. She has two best friends, Luísa and Fred, but wants something more. Then, from afar, she sees Pardalita, a senior and a gifted artist who''s moving to Lisbon to study in the fall. The two girls get to know each other whileworking on a play. And Raquel falls in love.

Using a gorgeous blend of prose poems, illustrations, and graphic novel format, author and artist Joana Estrela captures the feeling of being a teenager in a way that feels gentle, joyful, and real.
