From the publisher

In this magical adventure that’s perfect for fans of Lisa Yee and Erin Entrada Kelly, star athlete Thea must face her worst fears when two mischievous duwendes, Filipino goblins, threaten to wreak havoc on her life–and destroy her town.Thea gets a chance to begin anew at Pacific Academy. There, she’s a star athlete, someone with friends and popularity. But disaster strikes at Junior Stunt Warrior summer camp with her new friends: Her extremely uncool former best friend, Evan, shows up too, and she discovers that stunt class is the one activity she’s not good at. Actually, it’s something she’s terrified of. It all reminds Thea of the shy, invisible version of herself she’s determined to leave behind. Then, in the midst of building a practice obstacle course, Thea wrecks a tree that a pair of grumpy duwendes–Filipino goblins–call home. She’s shocked that not only are duwendes real, but the two in her backyard want revenge. Now Thea must team up with friends new and old to fend off the duwendes before they destroy her entire neighborhood. But can she pull it off while saving her cool-girl image, too?
