| Publisher Description: Tania Thumbelina Pulgar may be small, but she's fierce in the wrestling ring. When her friend Jorge "The Mouse" Mendoza introduces her to a manager named Mr. Mole, she's promised a pro career full of fame and fortune. But soon Thumbelina is miserable as she's dragged from match to match and forced into a flashy new persona that just isn't a good fit. Can the little wrestler break free of Mr. Mole's hold and live her own life? Experience Hans Christian Andersen's classic like never before in this graphic novel retelling for kids. Each Far Out Fairy Tales adventure includes info on the original tale, a guide to the story's twists, and visual discussion questions to critically engage readers. |
