"This spellbinding original story opens in a cantina crowded with desert animals, cowboys, and cowgirls all excited to see the glamorous Luna Ranchera mother-daughter singing duo. Long ago, Luna was down on her luck, starving and struggling to feed her pups, reduced to thieving from nearby ranchers. One day, escaping another heist, Luna has to hide in the worst possible place: on top of a beehive! She howls in pain so loudly, it carries all across the desert. It turns out Luna’s musical wails are something special, captivating creatures far and wide. Her most rebellious pup, Ranchera, joins her, and soon the two become the famous howling singing act with the flea-bitten souls, Luna Ranchera! Immersive and unforgettable, with knockout, whimsical art, the tale ends with the lyrics to Luna Ranchera’s most famous song. Perfect for fans of Coco and Soul."-- Provided by publisher.

Could have been great submitted by FordAlpha on July 31, 2023, 11:58pm But sadly, it's not great. The art is great, whimsical and busy. The premise has promise and heart. But the story is disjointed, leaving more questions than it answers. This is a story struggling, and failing, to find its way through a host of possibilities to a core that will grab readers and hold on to them. The song at the end is ... not great.
