Estrella "Star" Esteban, Chloe "Crafty Chloe" Chavez, Ofie Fuentes, and Benecio Javier Valencia II, four very unique individuals, form a craft group to make 200 centerpieces for the upcoming National Craft Olympics, which are being held this year in their hometown. As their individual sories unfold, the reader watches each of them "wake up in the land of glitter," and along the way they realize that friends can come in all sorts of packages, and that no matter how much you want life to turn out one way, sometimes you wind up with a completely different outcome. With a solid but quirky cast of supporting characters and highly witty prose, Kathy Cano-Murillo created a delightfully fun read!
