Tumble by Celia C. Pérez
Twelve-year-old Adela Ramirez has a great life in her small New Mexico town. She loves her mom and stepdad, she’ll soon have a baby sibling, and she has an awesome best friend. But when her stepdad asks to legally adopt her, Adela decides it’s finally time to get some answers about her biological dad, whom her mom refuses to talk about. It turns out Adela’s father is Manny “The Mountain” Bravo, a famous professional wrestler. As Adela gets to know her father and the extended family of luchadores she’s never met, she is pulled into a world of celebrity, theatrics, and lucha libre masks, all while piecing together her family’s history.
Attendees who read the book and participate in the group book review at the program will receive 3 hours of community service.
