CASAGRANDES VOL. 11

The Tres Leches Trials! Clima frío means caliente competition at the Casagrandes’! When the power goes out at the Mercado during a fierce blizzard, Carl comes up with a brilliant plan to keep the whole family warm: a competition for the last slice of tres leches cake! May the best sibling win! Then, Ronnie Anne and Lincoln hit up la pulga—the flea market! They’re on a treasure hunt for the perfect Muscle Fish artifact, but when someone else snags it first, the mission changes—to revenge! And when the whole family gets sick, it’s no surprise that Abuela’s got the cure. But her cold-vanquishing tea is a little too... fragrant... for everyone’s tastes. If she’s going to save them all from the worst sniffles, Abuela will have to go to war. Banish the winter blues with the latest fun-filled anthology featuring stories by the talent behind the Emmy-nominated series THE LOUD HOUSE and THE CASAGRANDES!
