New York Public Library Best Books for Kids
*“Corpus Christi native López smartly focuses on the road that got
Selena [Quintanilla] to her success and all the work and study that
went into overcoming genre, racial, and gender divides in the music
industry. She gets the details and tone right, whether it’s in
capturing her subject’s passion for performing or simply sprinkling
in Spanish words and phrases without overexplaining them.
Martinez’s illustrations capture the Quintanilla family’s loving
moments and convey extra information with the layering in of
postcards, banners, street signs, and lyrics. A Spanish-language
edition, translated by Carmen Tafolla, is equally on target, with
careful phrasing and a warmth in tone. . . . A worthy, sparkling
addition.”—Kirkus Reviews, starred review
*“The energetic, bright cartoon illustrations depicting Selena and
her family in various venues, decorated with rainbow notes, stars,
hearts, and flowers will appeal to young readers. . . . Will
inspire anyone who dreams of a career in the performing
arts.”—School Library Journal, starred review
