Description
A magical middle-grade adventure inspired by Mexican folklore traditions about a clever and plucky heroine, Valentina, who lives in a village with mysterious and wildly colorful beasts known as alebrijes.Valentina was born to hunt monsters. Alebrijes—colorful, otherworldly creatures that look like a carnival and a zoo exploded on each other—may seem fantastical, sometimes even cute, but Valentina knows that these creatures can be vicious and deadly. They have already done more damage to her family then she can bring herself to speak about.Vale intends to follow in her monster hunter father's footsteps and work to rid her home— Bahia de Deseos—of these threats. So when her father is hurt while hunting an alebrije, she and her brother Diego—who's been silent since their mother's death—step up to help.But what may have been a routine job for their father, for Vale and Diego becomes a journey into the wilds of the jungle surrounding their small village, and into the heart of the magic they've been told is gone forever. And when Diego is hurt, Vale must put aside everything she thought was solid—about family, friends, and the monstrous alebrijes themselves—to save him.
