The First Rule of Punk by Celia C. Pérez

Interest Level: 5-8
Reading Level: 5.2
Lexile: 670L
Genre: Realistic Fiction


Malu (Maria Luisa) loves punk music, zines and her Dad's record shop. When her mom gets a new job that will take them away from her Dad for the next two years, Malu thinks her life is over. A new school with a dress code, no friends and no connection to her Mexican culture, Malu feels adrift and alone. Will Malu find a way to fit in? Will she make friends?

I recommend this book. I liked the message of finding one's people and not needing to conform.
