LOS MONSTRUOS: AVA AND THE OWL-WITCH

Narrator Victoria Villarreal lends her impressive vocal talents to the conclusion of the Los Monstruos trilogy. In the magical South Texas town of Tres Leches, Ava, daughter of La Lechuza, wishes her mother would spend more time with her instead of sleeping all day and flying around at night, righting the wrongs of the world. When her mother is arrested for allegedly kidnapping a man she stops from driving while intoxicated, Ava reconnects with an estranged aunt. Can Ava save her mother and heal a deep family wound by proving her mother's innocence? Villarreal uses slight changes in tone and accent to convincingly portray these characters. Her expressive narration highlights moving passages in which characters heal in magical ways. A.M. Winner of AudioFile Earphones Award © AudioFile 2025, Portland, Maine [Published: DECEMBER 2025]
