What the Moon Saw

Clara Luna is a 14-year-old half Mexican girl living in the suburbs of Maryland. She doesn't know much about her father's side of the family until she receives an invitation from her grandparents to visit them in their village of Yucuyoo, Mexico. As a modern-day teenager she is shocked by the simple way her grandparents live, but she comes to understand the value of the way they do things. More importantly, she comes to understand her heritage and who she is. This is a great read for ages 10 and up. To join Clara on her adventures, find Laura Resau's What the Moon Saw at SPL by clicking here.
