Island Creatures
Margarita Engle
Told in verse, this story follows Vida and Adán, childhood friends who once helped animals in Cuba and later reconnect in Florida. Vida reads to animals at a wildlife rescue center, while Adán feels confined by conflict between his grandfather and father. A captive fox brings the two together again. As their romance grows, they work at a zoo that rescues rare species, though their new sense of peace does not last.
