Lizard in a Zoot Suit

Set in 1943 during the period of the Zoot Suit Riots, this story follows the Latinx sisters Flaca and Cuata. Their problem is more serious than being punished by their strict mother: they have rescued a reptilian creature and need to locate its family. At the same time, a corrupt scientist is trying to get hold of the creature. The book’s retro-style artwork uses yellow, black, and white as the sisters work to protect their unusual rescue.
