Every morning, Abuelo walks Sofia to school...until the day that Abuelo hurts his ankle at a local landfill and he can no longer do so. Sofia misses her Abuelo and wonders what she can do about the dangerous Mount Trashmore. Then she gets an idea—the town can turn the slimy mess into a park! She brainstorms and plans and finally works up the courage to go to City Hall—only to be told by a clerk that she can't build a park because she's just a kid! Sofia is down but not out, and she sets out to prove what one kid can do.

      Lively music and narrator Marisa Blake's bright voice will delight listeners in this audiobook about standing up for what is right. Sofia Valdez is a second-grade community helper and a welcome addition to Beaty's Questioneers series. Sofia and her Abuelo love to stroll their neighborhood together--until the day their dog charges off and Abuelo hurts himself in the city's landfill. Blake's inspiring tone conveys Sofia's excitement over her idea to transform the landfill into a public park, her courage while making her proposal at city hall, and her realization that "being brave means doing the thing you must do." Fun sound effects are used to create a city soundscape, while rhythmic music complements the pacing of the story. E.E.C. © AudioFile 2019, Portland, Maine
