Un libro que acompa?a a Me dicen G?ero, libro de Honor del Premio Pura Belpr?.

Libro ganador del premio Junior Library Guild Gold Selection 2023

“Puedes ser mi novio”. S?lo se necesitan esas cuatro palabras para cambiar la vida de G?ero al terminar s?ptimo grado.

El verano se torna m?s ocupado a medida que aprende a equilibrar su tiempo entre las nuevas pr?cticas con su antiguo grupo, Los Bobbys, y ser el novio de Joanna Padilla. La llaman “fregona” porque es fuerte, siempre defiende a su familia y mantiene a raya al bully de la escuela. Pero el G?ero ve su dulzura interior. Juntos cocinan espaguetis baratos y se toman de la mano en el campo de naranjos, mientras van conoci?ndose m?s y m?s a ellos mismos y tambi?n al otro, m?s de lo que podr?an haber imaginado. Pero cuando comienzan el octavo grado, Joanna enfrenta una tragedia que obliga al G?ero a reconsiderar lo que significa apoyar y estar presente para la persona a quien amas.

Honrando m?ltiples tradiciones po?ticas, Le dicen Fregona es una agridulce historia en verso sobre el primer amor y la muy esperada continuaci?n de Me dicen G?ero.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

Winner of the Junior Library Guild Gold Selection Award 2023

A companion to the Pura Belpr? Honor book They Call Me G?ero.

“You can be my boyfriend.” It only takes five words to change G?ero’s life at the end of seventh grade. The summer becomes extra busy as he learns to balance new band practice with his old crew, Los Bobbys, and being Joanna Padilla’s boyfriend. They call her “fregona” because she’s tough, always sticking up for her family and keeping the school bullyin check. But G?ero sees her softness. Together they cook dollar-store spaghetti and holdhands in the orange grove, learning more about themselves and each other than they could have imagined. But when they start eighth grade, Joanna faces a tragedy that requires G?ero to reconsider what it means to show up for someone you love.

Honoring multiple poetic traditions, They Call Her Fregona is a bittersweet first-love story inverse and the highly anticipated follow-up to They Call Me G?ero.
