Roller Girl se encuentra con los libros de la serie Cardboard Kingdom en esta novela gráfica original y contemporánea del galardonado autor Pablo Cartaya y el ilustrador bestseller del New York Times, Miguel DÃaz Rivas.
El béisbol es la pasión más grande de Elena Rueda: y puede que sea la única chica en su equipo, pero es la mejor jugadora y todos lo saben. Excepto que ahora... a Elena ya no le da mucha felicidad, y ha llegado el momento de dejar de jugar el deporte que tanto quiere.
El problema es que Elena no tiene idea quién es cuando no tiene un bate en la mano. ¿PodrÃa ser que pasar un verano con los amigos peculiares de su hermano en un campo vacÃo, le pueda ofrecer un mundo de posibilidades y mostrarle quién es ella realmente… y de paso enseñarle a amar el deporte de nuevo?
