(2) 4-6 Eleven-year-old Edver, in Cuba for the summer with the scientist father he's never met, is shocked to learn he has a twelve-year-old sister. Luza resents Edver's privileged life, but the siblings bond over their mutual love of the jungle's plants and wildlife and work together to save their country's living heritage. Through alternating chapters, Edver's and Luza's stories are told in Engle's signature verse style. Glos.
