# Lupe Lopez: Reading Rock Star! - Hardcover

by **E. E. Charlton-Trujillo** (Author), **Pat Zietlow Miller** (Author), **Joe Cepeda** (Illustrator)

**Learning to read is kind of a big deal, and Lupe Lopez has a lot to learn--in her own feisty way--to reach her goal of becoming a Reading Rock Star.**

Famous at Hector P. Garcia Elementary for being the first kid in kindergarten to _ever_ start a band, Lupe Lopez enters first grade seeking a new sort of fame. She's ready to rock and roll straight into the role of Reading Rock Star! But despite her best efforts, the words she _thought_ she knew--now grouped in sentences--only glare back at her. Stuck in Group A with the kids who can't read, she becomes the object of a rival's mockery. Will her beloved band, and her confidence, survive the sting of defeat? Leave it to Lupe to prove that the beat she feels when she taps her pencil isn't so very different from words and sentences--and that a real rock star is someone who doesn't give up. Featuring simple text laced with Spanish words, dynamic illustrations, and a reassuring theme, this sequel to _Lupe Lopez: Rock Star Rules!_ will encourage fledgling readers to keep trying, even if they miss a beat or two.
