Combining history, magic 
and folklore, this colorful tale offers a glimpse into an encounter between two fascinating but marginalized cultures–the Rom and the Mixtec Indians–while telling the heart-warming story of an unlikely friendship that spans generations.
this book was amazing, also I agree with RP ges because this book was inspiring. Esma really believed that anything was posable.
I enjoyed reading this book very much! I liked how Esma believed that “nothing is impossible!” I completely agree with RP ges that it was inspiring because Esma wanted to follow her dreams and never gave up. I also liked how Mateo’s grandfather told about the Lightning Queen in a story and didn’t say that he needed Mateo to find her until almost the very end of the book.
this book was very inspiring
