Every night, books wash up on the marooned shores of Altacaña. Thanks to Las Tías healing abilities, the stranded Candelas can read them all. But when a logbook from long-ago lighthouse keepers appears, Lumi will uncover just what stranded them in the first place #DVpit #MG #F

Lumi Candela needs friends, which is hard to come by as one of the last kids on planet earth. Good thing books with fictional friends wash up every day on the shore of her island—until one book appears with secrets powerful enough to flood her entire library #DVpit #MG #F

ENCANTO x THE LOST LIBRARY

Every night, books wash up on the marooned shores of Altacaña. Thanks to Las Tías healing abilities, the stranded Candelas can add them all to the family library—except for the one the youngest prima found. It’s secrets might just flood their entire island. #DVpit #MG #F

On the island of Altacaña, where every day books wash up on shore, none are banned. At least, that’s what Las Tías want the primos to believe. But when Lumi finds a book her Tías wished stayed underwater, it'll take some serious sleuthing to find out what's inside #DVpit #MG #F

Marooned on an island, Lumi lives all alone...along with three Tías, five primos, and one imaginary cat. But when that cat teaches Lumi to heal the mysterious books washing up on shore, just as her Tías do, she learns a history that could flood her island over. #DVpit #MG #F

Paola hates water aerobics. Nothing but old people and one pregnant lady—her sister. But when she meets a girl whose mom runs the pool’s mermaid classes, and the two start believing one of the elderly aerobics’s members might be an ACTUAL mermaid, no lifeguard can stop this case. #DVparty #MG

I've got Studio Ghibli and International Indie to offer today 😂 Tried to find a song with lyrics that fit the story but it's really just vibes 🪇🎵 There are some great artists in this playlist though. Look them up if you have a minute! #DVparty #MG #F

There is indeed quite a bit of lore, explained by cats in SEÑORITA CANDELA'S LIBRARY ON THE SEA. #DVparty #MG #F

Opening lines for SEÑORITA CANDELA'S LIBRARY ON THE SEA.

Today, the shore gave Lumi Candela a secret.
Half buried in the wet sand beside her feet, is a book.

Little late to today's party, but here I introduce Lumi Candela!

11 yrs old, quirky, full of life, and lots of love to give...if her primos only liked her more. So, she spends her time reading, pretending to be a cat, and eating her Tias' pastelitos 📚🐱🥟 #DVparty #MG

'Reading Rainbow' is returning to TV with a new host: Mychal Threets, also known as Mychal the Librarian, a Bay Area librarian immensely popular on TikTok and Instagram.

Marooned on an island, Lumi lives all alone...along with three Tias. And five primos. And one imaginary cat. But when that not-so-imaginary cat teaches Lumi to heal the mysterious books washing up on shore, just as her Tias do, she learns a hidden history that could flood her island over. #preDV #MG

Every night, books wash up on the shores of Altacaña. Thanks to Las Tias healing power, the stranded Candela family can read them all—except for the one their youngest prima found. Actually two. Maybe three. Or a few hundred. Can't let any family cats out of the bag. #preDV #MG

The Candelas live on a marooned island—they're also librarians. But when the three head Tias forbid Lumi, the youngest prima, from reading a book she found on shore, Lumi has to decide if reading it is worth risking their entire island. #preDV #MG
