Энэ электрон номын тухай

Natalie and Consuelo are like-minded individuals who live in Lava Landing, California.

But that means a trip to Mexico, and Consuelo still hasn’t gotten over her fear of long car rides….
In this touching and dazzling fresh novel, inspired by La Loter’a, a Mexican game of chance not unlike bingo, the American experience emerges in a brilliant new language and landscape.
