Описание: The turn of a card could change your destiny in this captivating middle grade adventure based on the Loterнa card game and perfect for fans of Coco. While searching for her missing cousin, a young girl is transported to a mythical kingdom, becoming entangled in a perilous game of chance."A magical, philosophical tale rooted in Mexican lore." --School Library Journal, starred review In the hottest hour of the hottest day of the year, a fateful wind blows into Oaxaca City. It whistles down cobbled streets and rustles the jacaranda trees before slipping into the window of an eleven-year-old girl named Clara. Unbeknownst to her, Clara has been marked for la Loterнa. Life and Death deal the Loterнa cards but once a year, and the stakes could not be higher. Every card reveals a new twist in Clara's fate--a scorpion, an arrow, a blood-red rose. If Life wins, Clara will live to a ripe old age. If Death prevails, she'll flicker out like a candle. But Clara knows none of this. All she knows is that her young cousin Esteban has vanished, and she'll do whatever it takes to save him, traveling to the mythical Kingdom of Las Pozas, where every action has a price, and every choice has consequences. And though it seems her fate is sealed, Clara just might have what it takes to shatter the game and choose a new path. Karla Arenas Valenti weaves an adventure steeped in magic and mythology--gorgeously illustrated by Dana Sanmar--exploring the notion of free will in a world where fate holds all the cards.

Описание:
How do you recover from a devastating heartbreak, otherwise known as broken heart syndrome? The sufferer experiences heart pain, shortness of breath and even thinks he may be dying. Do you give in to overwhelming grief? Or do you, like the author, have personal dialogues with God searching for insight?
In the beginning there is denial and bargaining: "God, here is my game plan. If it be Your will, let me have Liliana... and I will give her back to you." Then anger and bitterness. "What's wrong with me God? I hate this. Why can't you just snap your fingers and make it happen?
Finally, acceptance. The long six-year journey to recovery is over. The reader will not only learn about God's plan for the author, but will learn something about God's divine purpose in their lives as well.
