Claribel A. Ortega and star debut artist Rose Bousamra's Frizzy is
about Marlene, a young Dominican girl whose greatest enemy is the
hair salon! Through her struggles and triumphs, this heartwarming
and gorgeous middle-grade graphic novel shows the radical power of

three things: books, her cool Tia Ruby and hanging out with her
best friend Camila. 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 Tia Ruby--she slowly starts a
journey to learn to appreciate and proudly wear her curly hair.
