Hot lava and flying horses? Sign me up! Pele's Domains/Los dominios de Pele is the ultimate mash-up of adventure, mythology, and a dash of fiery drama. Isabella and Chloe are total rock stars, braving Pele’s volcanic lair with a little help from her sister and their trusty Pegasus. The Hawaiian vibes are on point, and the illustrations? Mind-blowing! This book is perfect for kids (and adults like me!) who love epic adventures and learning something cool while they’re at it.
