Tangerine Spanish Edition

Paul Fisher ve el mundo a traves de anteojos tan gruesos que parece un insecto del espacio exterior. Pero no esta tan ciego como para no ver que hay algunas cosas muy poco normales en la nueva casa de su familia, en el condado de Tangerine, Florida. En donde mas un socavon se traga la escuela de la localidad, el fuego arde debajo de la tierra por anos y caen rayos a la misma hora todos los dias? Con todo este caos, mezclado con el acoso constante de su hermano -quien es una estrella del f?tbol americano-, acoplarse a la vida en Tangerine no es facil para Paul. Hasta que se une al equipo de futbol de la escuela media donde estudia. Con la ayuda de sus nuevos companeros de equipo, Paul descubre lo que se esconde bajo la extrana superficie de su nuevo lugar de residencia. Y tambien obtiene el coraje para enfrentar algunos de los secretos que su familia le ha estado ocultando por demasiado tiempo. En Tangerine, tal parece, cualquier cosa es posible.
