About

Each Session we will be reading a few chapters from "Summer of the Mariposas". "Summer of the Mariposas" by Guadalupe Garcia McCall follows the journey of five Mexican-American sisters who find a dead body in the Rio Grande and decide to return it to its family in Mexico. Their adventure is filled with magical realism, supernatural encounters, and challenges that test their bond. It's a story about sisterhood, resilience, and the power of family, blending Mexican folklore with contemporary themes. If you enjoy tales of myth and family ties, this book is worth checking out. 📖✨
