Ultraviolet - Aida Salazar

Descriere Ultraviolet - Aida Salazar

\nSometimes life explodes in technicolor.\n \nIn the spirit of Judy Blume, award-winning author Aida Salazar tells it like it is about puberty, hormones, and first love in this hilarious, heartwarming, and highly relatable coming-of-age story. Perfect for fans of Jason Reynolds, Kwame Alexander, and Adib Khorram.\n \n\n \nThis important and intensely relatable tale perfectly captures the angst of growing up. A true gift to maturing tweens everywhere. -- Ernesto Cisneros, Pura Belpré award-winning author of Efrén Divided\n \nFor Elio Solis, eighth grade fizzes with change--his body teeming with hormones. His feelings that flow like lava. His relationship with Pops, who's always telling him to man up, the Solis way. And especially Camelia, his first girlfriend.\n \nBut when betrayal and heartbreak send Elio spiraling toward revenge, he doesn't anticipate that a fight to prove his manhood and defend Camelia's honor will lead to dire consequences--or that Camelia's not looking for a savior.\n \nCrackling with comedy and unflinching candor, Ultraviolet digs deep into themes of consent, puberty, masculinity, and the emotional lives of boys, as it challenges stereotypes and offers another way to be in the world. It speaks directly to tweens' and young teens' lived experiences and will make them feel seen.\n
