Princess Marisol & the Portal is a beautifully imaginative continuation of Alex Paramo’s enchanting trilogy. What I loved most about this book is how it blends adventure, culture, and wonder in such a seamless way. Princess Marisol, along with Metzli the Moon and La Mariposa, embarks on a magical journey across New Mexico, and the story captures both the mystical atmosphere and the richness of the region’s heritage. The narrative is filled with charm and heart, and young readers will not only be entertained but also feel inspired by the courage and curiosity of Princess Marisol. The addition of the audio portion with narration, voice acting, and music brings the story to life even more, making it a truly immersive experience. This book is perfect for children and families who love fairy tales with a unique cultural touch, and it leaves you eagerly awaiting what else Princess Marisol’s world has in store.
