One Day at a Time meets Mindy Kim in these first four books in the charming chapter book series about Catalina Castaneda, a Mexican American girl who uses her magical sewing kit to solve everyday problemsnow together in one collectible paperback boxed set.
Catalina Castaneda is not persnickety, even though thats what her parents and sister, Coco, like to think. Catalina just likes things the way she likes themperfect.
Thats why its very hard to hide her disappointment when her glamorous Ta Abuela, a famous telenovela actress, gives her an old sewing kit for her eighth birthday. However, Catalina soon discovers the sewing kit isnt as boring as she thinksits magic, turning ordinary clothing into magical disguises. But, as Ta Abuela warned her, the magic is only as strong as her stiches, and Catalina doesnt always have the patience for practice...
