The Lion of Tupungato

By Leanne M. Benson

When Sedona's parents travel, she reluctantly stays at her grandfather's house on the other side of town. While listening to tales of her Great-Grandma Isabel, and how she once rescued an injured lion-the only survivor of a mysterious plane crash-Sedona is fascinated. She becomes immersed in an adventure much greater than she ever dreamed. With this lion to guide her, Sedona's grandmother learns to conquer her fears. Unfortunately, those good times wouldn't last. When the lion is taken away from her, issues like inequality and bullying become too much for Isabel to bear. Join Sedona as she gains a new understanding of love, loss, family and friendship, in this unforgettable coming-of-age story, The Lion of Tupungato. The book is recommended for advanced readers in grades 5-8.
