Description


QUERER A ALGUIEN NO VIENE CON MAPA

Una novela esperanzadora para aquellos jóvenes que se sientan deprimidos, acorralados, incomprendidos e inseguros.
 
Olivia está haciendo un viaje por carretera, el viaje de sus sueños, con su fiel cámara fotográfica y su hermana mayor Ruth a su lado. Hace tres años, antes de que su familia se mudara de California a Tennessee, Olivia y Ruth enterraron una caja con sus recuerdos en su playa favorita. Ahora, en este viaje junto a sus tíos, ambas hermanas recorrerán todo el país para descubrir los recuerdos que dejaron atrás. Pero la depresión de Ruth ha empeorado, por lo que Olivia crea un plan para ayudarla a recordar cómo solía ser la vida: una improvisada búsqueda del tesoro por todo el país, como piratas que buscan tesoros, tomando fotografías y creando recuerdos en el camino.
 
Olivia sólo quiere tomar una foto que haga sonreír de nuevo a su hermana. Pero ¿y si las cosas no pueden volver a ser como antes? ¿Qué pasa si nunca encuentran el tesoro que están buscando? Mientras se hace estas preguntas, a Olivia sólo le queda amar a su hermana, y quizás eso ya sea suficiente.
 
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

A Junior Library Guild Selection

A sparkly, moving middle grade novel from Sarah Allen, and a big-hearted exploration of sisterhood, dreams, and what it means to be there for someone you love.
 
Olivia is on the road trip of her dreams, with her trusty camera and her big sister Ruth by her side. Three years ago, before their family moved from California to Tennessee, Olivia and Ruth buried a time capsule on their favorite beach. Now, they’re taking an RV back across the country to uncover the memories they left behind. But Ruth’s depression has been getting worse, so Olivia has created a plan to help her remember how life used to be: a makeshift scavenger hunt across the country, like pirates hunting for treasure, taking pictures and making memories along the way.
 
All she wants is to take the picture that makes her sister smile. But what if things can never go back to how they used to be? What if they never find the treasure they’re seeking? Through all the questions, loving her sister, not changing her, is all Olivia can do―and maybe it’s enough.
