A heartwarming middle grade story about a young girl, navigating growing pains in her South Texan city. Apolonia ‘Lina’ Flores is looking for answers, but she can’t seem to figure out why she’s losing all the important people in her life, even with a house crammed full of books and facts. After her mother’s unexpected death, her father hides from sorrow by keeping his nose buried in books. Her best friend Vanessa’s got problems of her own: her father recently left her mother, who deals with the rejection by obsessively making cascarones, which are hollow egg shells filled with confetti. Confetti Girl has a strong voice, humour, endearing characters, and compelling subject matter.
