Rizos Frizzy, Spanish Language edition

Una novela grafica de grado medio sobre Marlene, una joven que deja de alisarse el pelo y acepta sus rizos naturales.

Marlene ama tres cosas: el arte, a su adorada tia Ruby y pasar el tiempo con Camilla, su mejor amiga. Pero su mama piensa que se deberia enfocar solamente en sus estudios y en madurar; y esto ultimo implica alisarse el pelo todos los fines de semana para que se vea "presentable" y "bueno". Pero Marlene odia ir al salon y no entiende por que nadie a su alrededor piensa que sus rizos naturales son bonitos.

Despues de algunos desafios y momentos vergonzosos, ademas de la ayuda imprescindible de Camilla y tia Ruby, poco a poco Marlene emprende el camino de aprender a apreciar su pelo rizo y llevarlo con orgullo.
__

A middle grade graphic novel about Marlene, a young girl who stops straightening her hair and embraces her natural curls.

Marlene loves three things: books, her cool Tia Ruby and hanging out with her best friend Camila. But according to her mother, Paola, the only thing she needs to focus on is school and "growing up." That means straightening her hair every weekend so she could have "presentable", "good hair".

But Marlene hates being in the salon and doesn't understand why her curls are not considered pretty by those around her.

With a few hiccups, a dash of embarrassment, and the much-needed help of Camila and Tia Ruby-she slowly starts a journey to learn to appreciate and proudly wear her curly hair.
