Description

These sixteen stories by award-winning and bestselling YA authors center a Latinx point of view in an empowering anthology that reimagines classics through fantasy, science fiction, and with a dash of magic, for fans of A PHOENIX FIRST MUST BURN and RECLAIM THE STARS

In classic stories remixed, Latinx characters take center stage

Pride and Prejudice is launched into outer space, Frankenstein is plunged into the depths of the ocean, and The Great Gatsby floats to an island off the coast of Costa Rica.

A shape-shifter gives up her life to save the boy she loves from an evil bruja. La Ciguapa covets a little mermaid's heart of gold. Two star-crossed teens fall in love while the planet burns around them.

Whether characters fall in love, battle foes, or grow through grief, each story will empower readers to see themselves as the heroes of the stories that make our world.

Critical Reviews

"Each entry completely transforms its source material into a fresh, culturally specific, and relevant new version. An expertly executed anthology remixing classics into empowering, modern vignettes."--Kirkus Reviews, starred review

"In the many ways that science fiction and fantasy can broaden the dreams of any young person, this short story collection more than earns its spot on a shelf."--Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books
