| Publisher Description: Lola Montilla, a 13 year-old girl, born with Ebstein's anomaly (a rare congenital heart defect) faced a life-saving, open-heart surgery on November 2013 to correct her heart defect. Rather than trying to hide her scar, Lola found a way, through her scar (and the universal language of "selfies"), to inspire others, raise awareness about congenital heart defects, and redefine beauty for heart warriors like herself, and others who are battling self-image issues. Not only is this book the perfect gift for heart warriors, it's a great tool for teens dealing with body and self-image issues... and others who are working on accepting their own "scars." Text is in both English and Spanish. The images, are universal. |
