Marisol McDonald and the Clash Bash / Marisol McDonald y la fiesta sin igual
In the follow-up to the Pura Belpré Award Honor-winning Marisol McDonald Doesn't Match/Marisol McDonald No Combina, everyone's favorite mismatched heroine turns eight and throws a fabulously mismatched party.

En esta continuación del ganador del Honor del Premio Pura Belpré Marisol McDonald Doesn't Match/Marisol McDonald No Combina, la heroína favorita de todos cumple ocho años y celebra con una fiesta en su estilo único e fabuloso de cosas que no combinan.

Marisol is turning eight, and it's time to plan a birthday party that will be fabulous, marvelous, and divine. She also hopes that Abuelita, who lives far away in Peru, will be able to come to the celebration.

At the party store, Marisol can't decide what kind of party to have. There are so many choices, but everything in the store matches! Nothing seems right for soccer, pirate, princess, unicorn-loving Marisol. Finally she comes up with just the right idea, and when her friends arrive for her Clash Bash birthday, a big surprise awaits. But in a heartwarming turn of events, Marisol gets the biggest surprise of all—a visit from Abuelita via computer.

In this delightful story told in English and Spanish, author Monica Brown and illustrator Sara Palacios once again bring the irrepressible Marisol McDonald to life. With her bright red hair, golden brown skin, mismatched outfits, and endearing individuality, this free-spirited Peruvian-Scottish-American girl is headed straight into the hearts of young readers everywhere.

Marisol va a cumplir ocho años y es tiempo de organizar una fiesta que va ser fabulosa, maravillosa y divina. También espera que Abuelita, que vive lejos en Peru, vaya poder venir a la celebración.

En la tienda de fiestas, Marisol no puede decidir que tipo de fiesta tener. Hay tantas opciones, ¡pero todo en la tienda combina! Nada parece correcto para Marisol, la aficionada de futból, piratas, princesas e unicornios. Al fin, se le ocurre justo la idea correcta y cuando sus amigos llegan a su fiesta sin igual, una gran sorpresa les espera. Pero en un desarrollo conmovedor, Marisol recibe la sorpresa más grande de todos—una visita de su abuelita a través de la computadora.

En esta historia encantadora contada en inglés y español, autora Monica Brown e ilustradora Sara Palacios le dan vida a la incontenible Marisol McDonald una vez más. Con su brillante pelo rojo, piel cafe dorado, ropa que no combina y su individualismo simpático, esta niña Pueruanoescocésamericana de espíritu libre va dirigida derecho a los corazones de los lectores jovenes de todas partes.
