Growing up on a pineapple farm in Mexico, a young girl discovers the magic in everyday transformations that take place around her.

Una niña que crece en una finca de piñas en México nos descubre el verdadero significado de la palabra magia en este libro ilustrado, un volumen verdaderamente mágico sobre el cambio y la transformación --tanto sobre aquellas cosas que no podemos controlar, como los desastres naturales y las pérdidas, como las que sí están en nuestro poder. La magia puede transformar la tierra en piñas, las semillas en árboles, la lana en mantas, las palabras en historias, las páginas en blanco en imágenes.

It's spring break in Rose Hill, Texas, but Leo Logroño has a lot of work to do if she's going to become a full-fledged bruja like the rest of her family. She still hasn't discovered the true nature of her magical abilities, and that isn't the only bit of trouble in her life: Her family's baking heirlooms have begun to go missing, and a new bakery called Honeybees has opened across town, threatening to run Amor y Azúcar right out of business. What's more, everyone around her seems to have secrets, and none of them want to tell Leo what's going on. But the biggest secret of all comes when Leo is paid a very surprising visit--by her long-lost Abuelo Logroño. Abuelo promises answers to her most pressing questions and tells Leo he can teach her about her power, about what it takes to survive in a world where threats lurk in the shadows. But can she trust him?

Wanting to be a part of her family's Dia de los Muertos preparations, Leonora sneaks out of school to discover her mother, aunt, and older sisters have been keeping a secret.
