Written by e.E. Charlton-Trujillo & Pat Zietlow Miller and illustrated by Joe Cepeda

When Lupe Lopez struts through the doors of Hector P. Garcia Elementary in sunglasses with two taped-up Number 2 pencils- drumsticks, of course- poking from her pocket, her confidence is off the charts. All day, Lupe drums on desks, tables, and chairs while Ms. Quintanilla reminds her of school rules. Lupe has her own rules: 1) Don’t listen to anyone. 2) Make lots of noise. ¡Rataplán! 3) Have fans, not friends. But with her new teacher less than starstruck, and fans hard to come by, Lupe wonders if having friends is such a bad idea after all. Can it be that true star power means knowing when to share the spotlight? 32 pages

"Spanish-inflected onomatopoeia describing drumbeats jumps out of the text and makes a bold statement, just like Lupe herself. The mostly light brown-skinned students and adults are authentic to the book’s Texas setting, and Spanish words are scattered throughout... An instructive story about balancing big dreams with real life, with a charming heroine to root for." -Kirkus Reviews, Ages 6-9
