Bloomsbury presents Secrets We Tell the Sea by Martha Riva Palacio Obon, read by Bella Marie.

The only good thing about Sofia's mom sending her to live with her abuela is that finally Sofia and the sea will meet face-to-face.

The sea has always called to Sofia, even when she and her mom lived in a big city nowhere near its shore. That's how Sofia always knew she was a mermaid—that, and the fact that the sea and its creatures are much easier to understand than people. Like her mother, who is sending Sofia away instead of her barracuda of a boyfriend; that's a flying fish if Sofia's ever seen one, spending so much time reaching for the sky she can't see what's going on below the surface. When Sofia meets her abuela, she knows she's up against a sea dragon: fierce and guarded, but maybe not so bad when you're the one she's guarding. Still, Sofia longs to meet another mermaid, someone who understands her and the sea completely.

When Sofia meets Louisa, it seems like she's found just that—until the sea betrays them both in one irreversible moment. Soon their town is overtaken by hurricanes and floods and emotions and questions so big Sofia doesn't know what to do with them. Like, how do you catch a flying fish? How do you make friends with the sea again? And how do you calm the rough waters within yourself?

Reseñas de la crítica

Throughout this profound and insightful tour de force, Palacio Obon employs humor, lighthearted observations, and elements of magical realism alongside Sofía’s astute third-person narration to tackle challenging topics.
This profound work of magical realism overlays a girl's real world with the splendors and perils of the sea. An exquisite portrait of friendship, loss, healing, and the untamable forces of childhood inquisitiveness, individuality, and insightfulness.
[A] sensitive and compelling story . . . Palacio Obón uses a vivid and fast-paced narrative to make Sofía’s experiences realistic and relatable to readers, while highlighting important cultural connections to the powerful role of the sea in many Latin cultures.
The author weaves a rich magical realism story that reads with the simplicity and heart of a fable, taking the complexity of humanity and making it tangible. . . [A] needed and treasured fantasy.
Magical . . . Readers will be left both intrigued and . . . emotionally blown away.
This book will leave readers with the sounds of the sea playing in their ears.
