Warrior girl / Carmen Tafolla. by Tafolla, Carmen, 1951- Nancy Paulsen Books, 2023. Call #: FICTION TAF Subjects Mexican Americans -- Juvenile fiction.   Self-esteem -- Juvenile fiction.   Group identity -- Juvenile fiction.   Authorship -- Juvenile fiction.   Schools -- Juvenile fiction.   Families -- Juvenile fiction. ISBN:  9780593354711(hc.) Description:  205 p. ; 22 cm. Summary:  Celina and her family are bilingual and follow both Mexican and American traditions. Celina revels in her Mexican heritage, but once she starts school it feels like the world wants her to erase that part of her identity. Fortunately, she's got an army of family and three fabulous new friends behind her to fight the ignorance. But it's her Gramma who's her biggest inspiration, encouraging Celina to build a shield of joy around herself. Because when you're celebrating, when you find a reason to sing or dance or paint or play or laugh or write, they haven't taken everything away from you. Of course, it's not possible to stay in celebration mode when things get dire-- like when her dad's deported and a pandemic hits-- but if there is anything Celina's sure of, it's that she'll always live up to her last name: Guerrera-- woman warrior-- and that she will use her voice and writing talents to show the world it's a more beautiful place because people like her are in it.
