Description
Baseball means everything to Greg. Not just because it feels like he's flying when he hits a homerun, but because baseball keeps him close to his cousins in the DR. This year, he plans on winning the tournament and bringing the trophy with him on his trip. But when an accident at practice benches Greg for the season and dooms him to working at his parent's bodega, he feels like his world is ending.
For street cat Amber, life has always been about finding the joy in the little things. Like a cosy baby blanket left at the playground. Or a slice of pizza on the sidewalk. But when she spots a human boy whose leg is broken, she's reminded of what it's like to be scared, and she knows she wants to help, especially since she's missing a leg. But can Amber dare to dream bigger for herself than dumpster leftovers? Can Greg find a way to piece his two worlds, sports and the bodega, together — even if he's not the star of the game?
Bodega Cats: Pawsome Pals by Hilda Eunice Burgos is a heartfelt tale of finding joy in unexpected friendships and weaving together different parts of life even when plans fall through.

About the Author
Hilda Eunice Burgos was born and raised in Washington Heights, New York, watching a lot of Yankees games on TV with her baseball fanatic parents. The first time Hilda read a book-back when she was a student at P.S. 132-she knew she wanted to be a writer. She studied French and Spanish literatures at the University of Pennsylvania, and earned her law degree at Harvard Law School. She and her husband have two grown children and an adorable dog named Bear. In addition to writing the Bodega Cats series, Hilda is the author of Ana María Reyes Does NOT Live in a Castle, Miosotis Flores Never Forgets, and The Cot in the Living Room. Siara Faison is a bookseller turned illustrator from all over California. If she's not drawing, you can find her binging movies with her husband, sister, and old cat Kitty.
