Synopsis: Middle-grade fans of Pam Muñoz Ryan’s Esperanza Rising, will find a new Mexican heroine to love in Solimar and a fresh, magical story!
On the brink of her Quinceañera, and her official coronation, Solimar visits
the oyamel forest to sit among the monarch butterflies. There, the sun pierces
through a sword-shaped crevice in a boulder, which shines on her and sends the
butterflies humming and swirling around her.
After the magical frenzy, she realizes she's been given a gift―and a burden:
she can predict the near future! She has also become a protector of the young
and weak butterflies. This alone would be a huge responsibility, but tragedy
strikes when a neighboring king invades while her father and brother and many
others are away. The remaining villagers are taken hostage―all except Solimar.
Can this princess-to-be save her family, the kingdom, and the future of the
monarch butterflies from a greedy and dangerous king?
Written for ages 8 to 12 by the Newbery Honor Medal winner of the highly
acclaimed novel Echo.
