About this listen
Winner of Best Narration by the Author at the Audie Awards 2020 for With the Fire on High.
Finalist in Best Young Adult Audiobook at the Audie Awards 2020 for With the Fire on High.
The stunning new novel in verse from the 2019 Carnegie Medal winning and Waterstones Book Prize shortlisted author of The Poet X. 2020 Goodreads Choice Award Winner of Clap when You Land.
Camino Rios lives for the summers when her father visits her in the Dominican Republic. But this time, on the day when his plane is supposed to land, Camino arrives at the airport to see crowds of crying people....
In New York City, Yahaira Rios is called to the Principal's office, where her mother is waiting to tell her that her father, her hero, has died in a plane crash.
Separated by distance - and Papi's secrets - the two girls are forced to face a new reality in which their father is dead and their lives are forever altered. And then, when it seems like they've lost everything of their father, they learn of each other.
Papi's death uncovers all the painful truths he kept hidden and the love he divided across an ocean. And now, Camino and Yahaira are both left to grapple with what this new sister means to them and what it will now take to keep their dreams alive.
In a dual narrative novel in verse that brims with both grief and love, award-winning and best-selling Author Elizabeth Acevedo writes about the devastation of loss, the difficulty of forgiveness and the bittersweet bonds that shape our lives.

Amazing!
Just finished listening to the audiobook and what an emotional rollercoaster it has been! Loved the narration as well as the writing-in-verse style of this book. Through her writing alone she takes us through so many emotions, that her characters feel.
As 16 yr olds, who come to learn of their fathers death in a plane crash, clap when you land tells the story of two girls, Yahaira and Camino. It takes us through their journey of grief, pain, betrayal and finally even love. An emotional, poignant story that brings out the spirit of people of Dominican Republic. A must read.
