«Frena, Càndida, frena!» is the young adult novel by Maite Carranza, published by Cruïlla in paperback (176 pages, in Catalan).
Càndida is fourteen, has three siblings, a group of friends and a whole school year ahead. With energy «like a typhoon», she tries to earn money as a babysitter, presides over the Wild Cannibals fan club, learns to ski and dresses up as a spider, alternating triumph and failure in her adventures. Over the course of the year she discovers first love and learns to get up after every fall, without braking.
This title belongs to the Gran Angular series, volume 50, and is part of the saga featuring the same protagonist, following «Calla, Càndida, calla!». The Catalan edition was published on March 17, 2016.
Recommended for young readers aged 14 and up, especially those looking for a humorous and relatable novel about first love.
