by Guadalupe García McCall (Author), David Bowles (Translator)

Now in Spanish, this award-winning title from Pura Belpré Award-winning author Guadalupe Garcia McCall's magical retelling of The Odyssey stars fifteen-year-old Odilia, the reluctant leader of her four younger sisters as they set off on a fantastical road trip.

Cuando Odilia y sus cuatro hermanas encuentran un cadáver en un pozo de río, se embarcan en un viaje heroico para devolver al muerto a su familia en México. Pero su regreso a Texas se convierte en una odisea que compite con la epopeya original de Homero.

Con la ayuda sobrenatural de la Llorona mediante un arete mágico, Odilia y sus hermanas menores atraviesan un camino de tribulaciones a la casa de su abuela, a quien no han visto en años. Para llegar, deben ser más astutas que una bruja y su malvada trinidad: un engañoso hechicero, un clan de lechuzas medio humanas y un chupacabras sanguinario. Pueden estas fantásticas pruebas preparar a Odilia y a sus hermanas para lo que sucederá cuando se enfrentan a su prueba final, volver a casa en el mundo real, donde las diosas y los fantasmas ya no les pueden ayudar?

El verano de las mariposas no es sólo una mágica adaptación mexicano-americana de La odisea, sino una celebración de hermandad y amor maternal.
