In this heartrending graphic novel, Raina Telgemeier tells the story of Catrina and her family, who are moving to the coast of Northern California so that little Maya can get the same treatment. Cat isn’t happy about leaving her friends at home, but she can’t help admiring Maya’s golden sun-kissed hair – or the beautiful ocean shore they call home. But when she meets a strange girl named Rainbow (also new to town), Cat learns that grown-ups aren’t always what they seem.
The perfect sister combo of Raina Telgemeier and artist Jason Little, Catrina is an innovative, funny new graphic novel about friendship, imagination, and the bond between sisters. The girls believe their dreams will come true when they move from Southern California to Bahía de la Luna, where dreams are as plentiful as air. But when Cat and Maya discover that their new house is haunted by ghosts who want them gone—and fat cats that want to eat them—the dream looks more like an impossible job than anything else. From the hilarious debut of this dynamic duo comes a novel of heartbreak, humor, and hope.
When Catrina, Maya and their family move to the coast of Northern California, they think they’ll find a change of scenery. But when Cat’s little sister announces that she has cystic fibrosis and need to see the ocean air to get better, her parents agree to let her and her grandmother move with them! Cat is unhappy about this new situation, but she has no idea how much trouble they will get into during their first summer on the coast.
