Bookroo's summary

Tania "Thumbelina" Pulgar, a fierce wrestler despite her size, faces a dilemma when her manager, Mr. Mole, pushes her into a persona that doesn't fit. As she tours the country with her friend Jorge "Mouse" Mendoza, Tania must decide if fame is worth losing herself. Can she escape the glittering facade and return to the wrestling she loves? Discover a fresh twist on a classic tale in this engaging graphic novel.

From the publisher

Tania, called “Thumbelina” because she is really tiny, has worked very hard to be a wrestling champion in the Junior Indie League, and now she and her friend Jorge, “Mouse,” are being offered a chance at the pros, appearing in wrestling matches across the country–but her unscrupulous manager, Mr. Mole, wants her to adopt a flashy persona with elaborate moves, and somehow Tania must break free of the glitter and get back to the pure wrestling that she loves.
