Description
Este es un libro ilustrado conmovedor y apasionado sobre la icónica reina de la música tejana, Selena Quintanilla, que animará a los jóvenes lectores a encontrar su pasión y hacer posible lo imposible. ¡En español! La carrera musical de Selena Quintanilla comenzó a la edad de nueve años cuando comenzó a cantar en la banda de su familia. Pasó de usar un cepillo para el cabello como micrófono a viajar de ciudad en ciudad para dar conciertos. Pero Selena enfrentó un desafío: la gente decía que nunca triunfaría en la música tejana, que estaba dominada por artistas masculinos.
