Into the Mighty Sea - Hardcover

by Arlene Abundis (Author), Cynthia Alonso (Illustrator)

When Mariel's emotions become a big sea of color, she must learn to sail through or get lost in the swells in Into the Mighty Sea by debut author Arlene Abundis and acclaimed illustrator Cynthia Alonso.

Mariel's family is a big POP of color! But when her tíos, tías, and cousins arrive for her hermanito's birthday party, their many besos, noises, and colors start to feel overwhelming. As Mariel's tears grow into an ocean, she paints a boat to stay afloat and dives into the mighty sea.

When an island calls to her through the swells, she discovers sights, smells, and sounds on its shores that bring back memories of the people she loves the most to guide her back home.

Beautifully illustrated and lyrically written, Into the Mighty Sea is about a girl with big emotions who learns that sometimes taking a step back can be exactly what you need.
