Moving to a new town has made it difficult for Star to make friends, when her classmates tease her because of where she lives and because of her layered blue hair.

With an unforgettable voice with a lot of heart, Hope Is a Ferris Wheel is the story of a young girl who learns to accept her family and herself while trying to make sense of the world around her.

STARRED REVIEW
"Herrera’s first novel is quite accomplished, with plenty of heart and humor, especially apparent in the spelling assignments Star has to complete but refuses to turn in, as she uses them as a sort of journal. Star is a unique, determined, and loving child making the best of a bad situation; readers cannot help but root for her."
--School Library Journal, starred review
"Well-constructed, thought-provoking and appealing, this first effort bodes well for the author’s future."
--Kirkus Reviews
"In her debut, Herrera has created a delightful narrator with a memorable voice and surrounded her with a unique supporting cast. Got fans of Joan Bauer in your neck of the woods? Send them this way."
--Booklist
"A tender and truthful novel that addresses stereotypes without promising easy answers or cookie-cutter closure."
--Publishers Weekly
"First-time author Herrera, telling the story from Star’s point of view, gives readers a front-row seat to all the embarrassment and angst of Star’s jumbled life—and all of the triumphs. Here’s hoping we hear more from this author."
--The Horn Book Magazine
"Star’s contemplation, through poetic metaphors and real-life relationships, of what really matters in her life is compelling. Additionally, the poetry angle offers food for thought for those just coming to understand the power and purpose of metaphor, and Star’s vocabulary assignments, occasionally interspersed between chapters, provide inspiration and entertainment for word-lovers."

Use DUCT TAPE!
Size: 7''x3''
I actually ordered the window signs for cars. Even though it shows different, I got what I ordered. The problem comes in where it shows where they just stick in the window. WELL, THEY DON'T STAY FOR LONG. I drive for Lyft and Uber. I want those signs and need them to stay where I put them. The stuff they send with the signs is junk. USE DUCT TAPE AND BE DONE!

The load is durable and easy to clean!
I started using this shaver and so far I liked everything. It is very water-resistant. The load is durable. It is very easy to clean. It works very well in dry or with water. It does not cause irritation or cuts. As with a normal rake with the 5 heads. It makes your experience better since you can use it for any area of your body. I loved everything and for the price I definitely made a very good purchase. I recommend it.
