But according to her mother, Paola, the only thing she needs to focus on is school and "growing up." That means straightening her hair every weekend so she could have "presentable good hair." But Marlene hates being in the salon and doesn't understand why her curls are not considered pretty by those around her. With a few hiccups, a dash of embarrassment, and the much-needed help of Camila and Tía Ruby--she slowly starts a journey to learn to appreciate and proudly wear her curly hair.]]></description><link>https://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S40C3150491</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S40C3150491</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Ortega, Claribel A.]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 31 Jan 2022 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/3150491040</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781250259622/MC.GIF&amp;client=chinookarch&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Ghost Squad]]></title><description><![CDATA[For Lucely Luna, ghosts are more than just the family business.

With Seven's Uncle powers and their new coven behind them, surely they'll be able to defeat him at last. But strange things are happening around Ravenskill -the Witchlings' allies are starting to forget them! When the Witchlings are charged with the crime of practicing unnatural and dangerous magic, no one is there to come to their defense. Without any support, the Witchlings are forced to flee beyond the borders of the Twelve Towns and into the swirling grey mists of the Enchanted Grim, hoping to find the one witch who might have the knowledge and power to help them: Delphinium Larkspur. The Grim is an uncharted wilderness filled with monstruos, where no normal witch would ever be able to survive. But there's nothing normal about the Witchlings, their courage, or their friendship. Together with their Nightbeasts, they are determined to find a way to save their home. Even if it means embracing the monstruos within themselves"--]]></description><link>https://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S40C3997506</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S40C3997506</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Ortega, Claribel A.]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 31 Jan 2025 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/3997506040</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>Book 4, Scepter of Memories</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781546145318/MC.GIF&amp;client=chinookarch&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Witchlings]]></title><description><![CDATA[Ravenskill is hosting the Golden Frog Games, a magical tournament, but somebody is using forbidden hexes to turn contestants into stone; meanwhile Seven Salazar, future "uncle" of Ravenskill, who is supposed to have the power to communicate with animals, has a secret--the only voices she hears belong to the deadly monstruos.]]></description><link>https://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S40C3701295</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S40C3701295</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Ortega, Claribel A.]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 31 Jan 2024 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/3701295040</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>Book 2, The Golden Frog Games</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781338745801/MC.GIF&amp;client=chinookarch&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[House of Elephants]]></title><description><![CDATA[Seven and Thorn still have not found a way to cure the hex that turned their friends into stone, magic seems to be working backwards, every new witchling at the Black Moon Ceremony is a spare--and the Hill Society blames the Spares and wants to prevent them from using magic.]]></description><link>https://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S40C3655476</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S40C3655476</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Ortega, Claribel A.]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 31 Jan 2024 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/3655476040</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781338853841/MC.GIF&amp;client=chinookarch&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Witchlings]]></title><description><![CDATA["Every year, in the magical town of Ravenskill, Witchlings who participate in the Black Moon Ceremony are placed into covens and come into their powers as full-fledged witches. And twelve-year-old Seven Salazar can't wait to be placed in the most powerful coven with her best friend! But on the night of the ceremony, in front of the entire town, Seven isn't placed in one of the five covens. She's a Spare! Spare covens have fewer witches, are less powerful, and are looked down on by everyone. Even worse, when Seven and the other two Spares perform the magic circle to seal their coven and cement themselves as sisters, it doesn't work! They're stuck as Witchlings--and will never be able to perform powerful magic. Seven invokes her only option: the impossible task. The three Spares will be assigned an impossible task: If they work together and succeed at it, their coven will be sealed and they'll gain their full powers. If they fail... Well, the last coven to make the attempt ended up being turned into toads. Forever ...
