When people come to Bicho Raro, it is in search of a miracle. The Soria family is famous for granting miracles, but they are never what people expect. When Pete and Tony unexpectedly meet up on their way to Bicho Raro, the Soria cousins (Daniel, Beatriz, and Joaquin) lead them on an unexpected journey of magic, storytelling, love, and music. Lovers of Zusak's The Book Thief and McNeal's Far Far Away will enjoy this fantasy novel with magical realism.
