About the Book

Features a Latina protagonist of spunk and smarts whose congressman father is on the House floor on January 6, 2021. Fina Mendoza, our amateur detective, is in the middle of an investigation to find out who stole the 5th grade pizza. But all thoughts of detection go out the window as she, her sister Gabby, and grandmother Abuelita watch on television as a mob breaks into the Capitol. Is Papa okay? Most of Fina's classmates have parents who work inside that building as well. Their teacher calms their fears and the next day, turns the event into a teaching opportunity, looking back at the bitter presidential election rivalry between Thomas Jefferson and John Adams. The students discuss the concepts of winning and losing, whether it's a baseball game, reading competition, or an election.

About the Author :
Award-winning public radio journalist, writer, and TEDx speaker Kitty Felde hosts the "Book Club for Kids" podcast, named by The Times of London as one of the top 10 kidcasts in the world. The Los Angeles native created the Washington bureau for Southern California Public Radio and covered Capitol Hill for nearly a decade, explaining how government works to grownups. Now she explains it to kids in a series of mystery novels and podcasts called "The Fina Mendoza Mysteries". Kitty was named LA Radio Journalist of the Year three times by the LA Press Club and the Society of Professional Journalists.

Review :
"Our democracy is still very much in danger, and if elections are only considered valid if your side wins, our future is indeed dim. Kitty Felde helps us convey to children that our democracy depends on all sides of an election putting their allegiance to country above party, and her book helps open the door to a discussion about the perilous events on January 6th, how to find common ground, rebuild trust, and reach across the aisle, er, playground." - U.S. Congressman Adam Schiff
