Salva Sánchez descubrirá su propia voz y su identidad con la ayuda de nuevos amigos, de su padre y de su ídolo, Celia Cruz, en la conmovedora novela Cántalo como Celia

Salva Sánchez, de doce años, siempre ha sido súper fanática de Celia Cruz, también conocida como "la reina de la salsa". Su amor por Celia proviene de su madre, quien un día abandona a Salva sin ninguna explicación. Ahora Salva se siente atrapada viviendo con su padre, un periodista de investigación, en un campamento de casas rodantes, en medio de la nada.

Mientras Salva se adapta a su nuevo entorno y trata desesperadamente de entender por qué su madre la abandonó, entabla una amistad con un grupo de niños que viven también en el campamento y han formado una banda. Cuando los niños descubren que Salva tiene una voz increíble, la convencen de unirse a su banda para cantar. Pronto, Salva aprende a encontrar su voz y a descubrirse a sí misma con la ayuda de sus nuevos amigos, de su padre y de la única e inigualable Celia Cruz.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

Sing It Like Celia is a revelatory story about a Mexican American girl who finds her voice and herself with the help of her role model and icon, Celia Cruz.

Twelve-year-old Salva Sanchez has always been a fan of Celia Cruz, also known as "the queen of salsa." Her love of Celia stems from her mother, who leaves Salva without explanation one awful day. Now Salva is stuck with her investigative journalist father in an RV campground. In the middle of nowhere.

As Salva acclimates to her new environment and desperately tries to figure out why her mother left, she befriends a posse of campground kids who have started a band. When the kids discover that Salva has an amazing singing voice, they convince her to join their group. Soon, Salva learns how to find her voice--and herself--with the help of her newfound friends, her dad, and the one and only Celia Cruz.
