The elephant wants to take a calm bath, but he quickly realizes that many animals are following him: two big rhinoceroses, three elegant giraffes, four lions. . . How many more will come to join him?

A boy describes himself, feature by feature, in order to make a self-portrait. The outcome, however, is not what he was expecting. This is a charming way to teach little ones that creativity has no limits, and that being creative can be a lot of fun.

Two very creative children show the reader how they can find a “hidden” vowel anywhere. The amusing suggestions will help pre-schoolers associate the shape of each one of the five vowels with things they find in their own world.

Literature

After rejecting several boring and sophisticated dolls that she finds in a toy store, the little girl in this story chooses a rag doll with button eyes. This is a sweet tale that teaches readers that it is not always the most expensive or fancy things that makes us happy.

A boy desperately looks for his rubber ducky through his entire house. His imagination leads him to look in the most unusual places, like the clouds or underneath a fork... In the end, he finds it where he first should have looked: in his toy box. An amusing story based on a traditional children’s rhyme.

This story’s protagonist is a feisty little girl who not only loves to play with her favorite doll but also enjoys riding her bike and skateboard, proving that those are not “boy’s things.”

This little book presents the Hispanic traditional rhyme “Sana, sana, colita de rana…” (Heal, heal, frog’s tail) with a twist, proving that hugs and kisses can cure any soul.

If you were a boy named Henri Matisse who lived in a dreary town in northern France, what would your life be like? Would it be full of color and art? Full of lines and dancing figures? Find out in this beautiful, unusual picture book about one of the world's most famous and influential artists by acclaimed author and Newbery Medalwinning Patricia MacLachlan and innovative illustrator Hadley Hooper.

This book tells the tale of a TVaddicted little girl and her dog Mr. Barkley, as they try to find a solution for the catastrophic breakdown of their television. Matters are complicated thanks to the pet’s plan to show his master the real world. A simple story that discusses the importance of diversifying the way we spend our free time. It also invites readers (and their parents) to be conscious of their relationship with electronic devices.

Bernard wants to play with his dad, who is absorbed in his own business and simply responds, “Not now, Bernard.” He then tries to get his mother’s attention, but she responds the same way. But something is worrying the little boy: there is a monster in the garden, and Bernard is worried that he will be eaten. When Bernard goes out to the garden, his fears are confirmed—the monster devours him! What will the boy’s parents do now?

Can the librarian save Abdi from the scorpion? Wait! Is that actually a scorpion?

A giant crocodile comes out of a river and meets a tiny mouse, a big elephant, a tall giraffe, a short armadillo, a wrinkly frog, and many other animals. The simple texts are accompanied by colorful illustrations that open the door to the reader’s interpretation. Based on the special characteristics of each animal, concepts of texture and size are presented so that children identify and learn the meaning of each one.

The zebra has a serious doubt: she wants to know what color she is, so she compares herself with other animals. Is she red like a ladybug? Yellow like a lion? Green like a frog? But the zebra isn’t red, or yellow, or green, or blue, or orange, or purple, or brown. What color could she be? Through the zebra’s question and the fun illustrations, children will identify the names of colors as they recognize the colors of various animals.

The modern retelling of this fairy tale will captivate young readers because it is told through the eyes of a young boy. The illustrations enrich the story and assist the reader to understand two ways of interpreting a story: that of the storyteller and that of the listener. Jorge’s imagination transforms this tale into a very different and funny story.

The Rain Man has a very important job: to open and close the faucets on the clouds so that it will rain or stop raining. He jumps softly from cloud to cloud, and he does his job well, although he sometimes falls asleep on the job from exhaustion.

Every dad has a magical side that makes him the best playmate. Dads can tame the fiercest beasts and turn into towers and bridges—but above all, they can become their child’s best friend. This magical interaction between father and child, filled with mischief and love, is presented here through hilarious illustrations and playful and simple language.

In this story, everything seems backwards. The circus performers do things we would never have imagined: the elephants walk the tightrope, the horses liven things up with music, the seals are happy spectators who give a standing ovation to the brave lion who sticks his head in the handler’s mouth. Beginning readers will discover that imagination has no limits, and that just by changing a few things around, you can create very funny situations.

This town square is very different from the rest: in it, two old trees play chess while the pigeons throw candies at children, and several ladies flit from flower to flower. This book will motivate children to imagine all that they would do in a plaza as odd as this one.

A simple story written with ingenuity by Rodari, one of the most important children’s authors of the 20th century.

Why do we celebrate Thanksgiving? This book explains how the pilgrims reached America, the difficulties they had, who helped them, and finally, how they gave thanks for everything they received.

Tania belongs to the Navajo tribe. When she talks about her clan and their homes, about the clothes she wears, and about what her family produces, we can tell how proud she is of being a Native American girl.

This book shows us different types of homes, like singlefamily homes, apartment buildings, and even houses that float!

Each season is special and has its own wonders: the birds that sing in springtime, and the sunny days of summer, watching the leaves that fall in autumn, and playing in the winter snow. Each season has something to enchant us.

Catalina is on her way to her friend’s house, but she doesn’t want to take an umbrella. Her mother makes her watch the weather forecast. The forecast tells Catalina what she should do.

This book looks like a child’s report of his or her class’s field trip to the zoo. The “author’s” simple text and cute drawings tell us about the things they did and the many animals they saw. It made the students laugh to see the funny little penguins walk! They had a very good day at the zoo.

There are big animals and small ones, tall animals and short ones. Some live in trees. Some eat plants. In this book we explore how animals are different from each other, what they do, and what they eat.

Ámbar Dorado awakes, ready for a perfect day at the county fair. She, her parents, her best friend Justo, and his family are in the Poconos on vacation. She’s got it all planned. . . hot dogs, cotton candy, games, and wonderful rides. The morning turns out exactly as she hopes it will, but then her mom and dad get into a fight, and a perfect day at the fair turns into just a fair day.

Ámbar Dorado wants a watch for her seventh birthday more than anything. She will feel more grown-up when she can see what time it is whenever she wants. Also, she will always know exactly how late Justo Daniels, her best friend, is. He is a great best friend, but Amber is getting tired of waiting for him all the time. She wants to live on Amber Time, not Justin Time.

Ámbar Dorado is expecting the best vacation ever! Her family is going to the Poconos with her best friend, Justo Daniels, and his family. Amber can’t wait to explore the tree house, cool off in the pool, and maybe even sleep out in a tent. Nothing can go wrong on a vacation with your best friend—or can it?

In Huir hacia la libertad, while visiting Smithsonian Institution’s Anacostia Community Museum, a girl imagines that she is a slave making a dangerous escape from the South using the famous Underground Railroad.

Arturo and Lulai are best friends. They like the same things and always have fun together. They are inseparable. Until one day, Arturo gets mad at her and tells her to go to China and never come back. That night, Lulai can’t stop crying. Why did he say such terrible things? Will they be able to be best friends again? With tenderness, realism, and a good dose of humor, Elvira Lindo creates a story that both children and adults will identify with.

Frog and Toad, the likable duo, fly kites, clean the house, and tell ghost stories together. They even learn about the value of being alone. Frog is more perceptive than Toad; his supportive manner with his friend shows that personal differences don’t have to get in the way of friendship.

Pepe kept going to school, and wrote a letter to the government asking for a pension for his grandfather.

Juan is a young boy who is very short for his age, has crooked teeth, and whose left foot is larger than his right. All these things create many problems for him. Without Julia, his situation would be terrible. But with her friendship, everything is all right.

Natacha writes to her dog Raffles, telling him all about her beach vacation. She goes to a library with her classmates to do research on The Beatles, and makes significant progress in her English language studies. She consults the I Ching and is advised to “cross the great waters.” She also asks questions like “Mom, did you know we are supposed to be competing for Dad’s attention?”

Learning Arab dance, solving computer problems, an essay on the human body, a visit to a farm where “city animals” meet “country animals,” and a chat session with a famous writer are just some of the situations in which Natacha and her BFF Pati (Oh! and lets not forget her dog Raffles!) manage to turn into absolute madness.

Natacha and Pati get into the business of writing made-toorder love letters. This leads to entertaining situations, both in and out of school. This book is about the challenges of making friends, getting good grades, helping others regardless of who they are, and of being sons and daughters. . . In other words: about being children.

In La primera caminata lunar, while visiting Smithsonian Institution’s National Air and Space Museum, a boy daydreams that he is Neil Armstrong on his famous 1969 Moon mission. Just like Armstrong did, the boy lands on the Moon and takes one giant leap for mankind.

Many children think that the sweetest, most wonderful word is chocolate. It must be, because the first thing that a dragon, a unicorn, and a fairy do once they’re born is to ask for chocolate! In this story, accompany these characters as they embark on a long journey to the magical home of the cacao plant, the plant whose seed is turned into this delicious food.

One of the best parts of a young child’s day is opening a lunchbox and diving in. But how did that delicious food get there? From planting wheat to mixing dough, climbing trees to machine-squeezing fruit, picking cocoa pods to stirring a vat of melted bliss, here is a clear, engaging look at the steps involved in producing some common foods. Health tips and a peek at basic food groups complete the menu.

“Every night, when I’m all tucked in and ready to sleep, Mr. Tickles comes to visit me.” This is a story about children’s excitement about hugs and snuggles with Mommy and Daddy before going to sleep; about that daily wait to receive affection at the end of a long day. This is a perfect book for parents and children to start a new bedtime ritual.

In spite of its speed, this beautiful animal has been captured on these pages, and it also has a story to tell you.

Author David J. Smith has found clever devices to scale down everything from time lines (the history of Earth compressed into one year), to quantities (all the world wealth divided into one hundred coins), to size differences (the planets shown as different types of balls). A great classroom reference that can be reached for again and again when studying scale and measurement, and also for math applications in other disciplines.

The subject of ghosts is a must in any legend. In this book fearless readers will find two Puerto Rican legends: The story behind the famous Well of Jacinto, found on a beach in Jobos, on Isabela island; and the mystery of the apparition of a “fairy” in the cemetery of the town of Manati.

Robert E. Lee seemed destined for greatness. His father was a Revolutionary War hero and at West Point he graduated second in his class! In 1861, when the Southern states seceded from the Union, Lee was offered the opportunity to command the Union forces. However, his loyalty to his home state of Virginia wouldn’t let him fight for the North. Despite the South’s ultimate defeat, General Robert E. Lee remains one of America’s true military heroes.

“Remember the Alamo!” is still a rallying cry more than 175 years after the siege in Texas, where a small band of men held off about two thousand soldiers of the Mexican Army for twelve days. The Alamo was a crucial turning point in the Texas Revolution, and led to the creation of the Republic of Texas. With 80 illustrations and a sixteen-page photo insert, young readers will relive this famous moment in Texas history.

Ben Franklin was the scientist who, with the help of a kite, discovered that lightning is electricity. He was also a statesman, an inventor, a printer, and an author—a man of such amazingly varied talents that some people claimed he had magical powers! Full of all the details kids will want to know, the true story of Benjamin Franklin is by turns sad and funny, but always honest and awe inspiring.

Did you know that John Adams had to coax Thomas Jefferson into writing the Declaration of Independence? The shy Virginia statesman refused at first, but then went on to author one of our nation’s most important and inspiring documents. The third U.S. president, Jefferson was also an architect, inventor, musician, farmer, and—what is certainly the most troubling aspect of his life—a slave owner.

Although polio left him wheelchair bound, Franklin Delano Roosevelt took office during the Great Depression and served as president during World War II. Elected four times, he spent thirteen years in the White House. How he led the country through tremendously difficult problems, much like the ones facing America today, makes for a timely and engrossing biography.

Born on December 28, 1856, Thomas Woodrow Wilson was a born leader. He was the president of Princeton University, served as governor of New Jersey after that, and was then elected president of the United States. But not everything was so easy for Wilson. He was ahead of his time in wanting a League of Nations after World War I to help prevent another war like it, but his hopes were dashed when the United States refused to join.

Amelia Earhart was a woman of many “firsts.” In 1932, she became the first woman to fly solo across the Atlantic Ocean. In 1935, she also became the first woman to fly across the Pacific. From her early years to her mysterious 1937 disappearance while attempting a flight around the world, readers will find Amelia Earhart’s life a fascinating story.

We live in a time of heightened environmental awareness, and this knowledge is creating a generation of children with feelings of eco-anxiety—the world is doomed, isn’t it? Maybe not. This book allays kids’ fears by showing how all is not lost. Young readers learn that smart technologies, innovative ideas, and a growing commitment to alternative lifestyles are exploding around the world.

Mowgli, a young boy, has gotten lost in the jungle. A family of wolves decides to adopt him despite the other animals’ reservations because, according to them, man is the most dangerous animal that exists. The boy grows up under the rules of the jungle, until the time comes for him to join his peers.

When Portuguese sailor Ferdinand Magellan set sail from Spain in 1519, he believed he could get to the Spice Islands by sailing west through or around the New World. He was right, but what he didn’t know was that the treacherous voyage would take him three years and cost him his life. Black-andwhite line drawings illustrate Magellan’s life and voyage, with sidebars and a time line that enhance readers’ understanding of the period.

When Irene and Elías go exploring an abandoned and creepy house they find an old, dust-covered trunk which is really a time machine. They unwittingly travel 40 years back in time and meet their parents, who are younger than them! The problem? Finding their way back to the present without a hitch. . .

No one knows where the term Underground Railroad came from—there were no trains or tracks, only ‘conductors’ who helped escaping slaves to freedom. Including real stories about ‘passengers’ on the ‘Railroad,’ this book chronicles slaves’ close calls with bounty hunters, exhausting struggles on the road, and what they sacrificed for freedom. With 80 illustrations and a sixteen-page photo insert, the Underground Railroad comes alive!

Born a slave in Maryland, Harriet Tubman knew firsthand what it meant to be someone’s property; she was whipped by owners and almost killed by an overseer. It was from other field hands that she first heard about the Underground Railroad, which she travelled by herself north to Philadelphia. Throughout her long life, and long after the Civil War brought an end to slavery, this amazing woman was proof of what just one person can do.

But it was Louis Armstrong’s own passion and genius that pushed jazz into new and exciting realms.

In 1955, Rosa Parks refused to give her bus seat to a white passenger in Montgomery, Alabama. This seemingly small act triggered civil rights protests across America and earned Rosa Parks the title “Mother of the Civil Rights Movement.” This biography has black-and-white illustrations throughout.

Victor Manuel Meir was not happy with his name and decided to change it to Piruleta, after his favorite green lollipops. They were his favorite because he knew they were magical and once he looked through one all his wishes would come true.

“Four score and seven years ago . . .” begins Abraham Lincoln’s beautiful speech commemorating the three-day battle that turned the tide of the Civil War. The South had been winning up to this point. So how did Union troops stop General Robert E. Lee’s invasion of the North? With black-and-illustrations throughout and sixteen pages of photos, this turning point in history is brought vividly to life.

The morning of August 24, AD 79, seemed like any other in the Roman city of Pompeii. So no one was prepared when the nearby volcano Mount Vesuvius suddenly erupted, spouting ash that buried the city and its inhabitants. More than 1,700 years later, in 1748, explorers rediscovered the port city with intact buildings and beautiful mosaics. This easy-to-read account is gripping and includes photos of the ruins.

Margarita is all fun and games, and those are the things she shares with her best friends: her grandmother and her greatgrandmother. She discovers that through the years much changes, but fun and games are always the same!

A humorist, narrator, and social observer, Mark Twain is unsurpassed in American literature. Best known as the author of The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, Twain had a restless spirit. He found adventure prospecting for silver in Nevada, navigating steamboats down the Mississippi, and making people laugh around the world. He also had a serious streak and decried racism and injustice. His fascinating life is captured candidly in this enjoyable biography.

Born in Connecticut in 1811, Harriet Beecher Stowe was an abolitionist, author, and playwright. The publication of her book, Uncle Tom’s Cabin, a scathing anti-slavery novel, fanned the flames that started the Civil War. The book’s emotional portrayal of the impact of slavery captured the nation’s attention. A best-seller in its time, Uncle Tom’s Cabin sealed Stowe’s reputations as one of the most influential antislavery voices in US history.

Literary Nonfiction / History On October 29, 1929, life in the United States took a turn for the worst. The stock market plunged to a record low. But this event was only the beginning of many bad years to come. By the early 1930s, one out of three people was not working. People lost their jobs, their houses, or both and ended up in shantytowns. The Great Depression remains one of the hardest and most widespread tragedies in American history.

Marie Antoinette was born into royalty in 1755 and married the future king of France at age 15. She enjoyed a lavish lifestyle of masquerade balls, sky-high wigs, and extravagant food. The poor people of France blamed her for their poverty. Her spending helped incite the French Revolution. In 1793 she literally lost her head because of it. Whether she was blameless or guilty is debatable, but Marie Antoinette remains woven into the fabric of history and popular culture.

Juan hasn’t been back to the small town of San Juan del Sumapaz (Colombia) since his parents died, but he still has memories of the place where they used to take him on outings when he was little. Juan gets his grandmother to take him there as a birthday present.

When Meriwether Lewis, William Clark, and the “Corp of Discovery” left St. Louis, Missouri, on May 21, 1804, their mission was to explore the vast, unknown territory acquired a year earlier in the Louisiana Purchase. The travelers hoped to find a waterway that crossed the western half of the US. Young readers will love this true-life adventure tale of the two-year journey that finally brought the explorers to the Pacific Ocean.

Matilda is a precocious five-year-old who has read Dickens and is a math whiz. Unfortunately, she must contend with nasty Mrs. Trunchbull, her teacher. But once again, Dahl gives his young protagonist “the inventive powers to. . . revenge [herself] humorously against her oppressor.” (Times Literary Supplement)

The Word Rebellion tells the story of the Clum family, whose members are affected by a weird language-related illness. Through humor, irony, and ingenuity, this novel allows readers to enjoy language and words, and at the same time, reflect about the importance of communication.

Florence is twelve years old and makes lists to organize her worries and priorities. Faced with her father’s inexplicable absence, one day she makes an important decision that takes into account her ability to “do nothing” and transforms her life. Year after year, Andrea Ferrari has continued to position herself as one of the best narrators in children’s and young adult literature.

Mrs. Patrocinio’s father never told her if he loved her or not. Instead, he left her a mysterious paper on which the answer was written. She asks for help from Detective Calzeta and his young assistant, Ruedas, to decipher the mystery. The difficult case will lead readers to spend a summer full of heart-stopping adventures on the mountain. The illustrations marked with a special icon become videos with songs and riddles when scanned with an app.

Hitler’s arrival to power is going to radically change the lives of Anna and her family. To escape from the horrors of the Nazis, they must abandon their country and leave behind many beloved things, like Anna’s stuffed bunny. . . and with it, her childhood. This is one of the most widely read novels by young people around the world—a work that is overflowing with emotion and sincerity.

Upon finishing elementary school, Diana Soler receives the best gift her mother can give her, a bright red bicycle. As of this moment, she traverses the paths in the forest with the Wild Sisterhood, and together they make a startling discovery that will change their lives. A story of adventure and respect for nature.

The war has turned Sarajevo into a place of turmoil and destruction. This story tells of the journey of a Bosnian family that is first airlifted to Belgrade and later makes its way to Vienna. The family’s ordeal is touchingly told from a child’s perspective.

“The viking didn’t have very many possessions; he never wanted to be tied to life in the village with its sleepy firs and its immense bonfires.”

Soon, he realizes that inside it lives a thousandyear-old extraterrestrial who lost his home long ago. Little by little, the two develop a friendship and share feelings that teach Julio about his own nature and about the vastness of the universe. This adventure deals with the big themes of existence and the immensity of the universe with great wisdom and sensitivity.

One day, Mrs. Bartolotti receives a special package: a seven-year-old boy inside a can! He arrives pre-fabricated to be a “perfect son.” The two become fond of one another, until one day the factory discovers the error and will do anything to get him back. Mother and child will also do anything to prevent this from happening. 1984 HANS CHRISTIAN ANDERSEN FOR WRITING

Greek myths have withstood the passing of time. Even today, they captivate readers of all ages because of their ability to portray the human spirit in settings that appeal to our wildest flights of fancy. Ana María Shua masterfully relates a selection of them: the creation of the universe, the birth of the Olympian Gods, and the adventures of brave heroes.

Felipe never helps at home; he’s rude, disobedient, and a bad student. He knows that a big punishment is waiting for him, but it doesn’t happen! His parents don’t say anything— moreover, they practically ignore him. They have decided to go on strike! With an ironic tone and a large dose of humor, the novel brings us the reality of a careless boy who finds himself forced to reflect on his poor behavior and how it affects those who live with him.

Miguel is a careless boy who leaves everything out of place, breaks whatever is in his path, and doesn’t obey his parents. Tired, they decide to give him a month to look for a place to live: they have fired him. Time passes, Miguel doesn’t listen, and he suddenly finds himself in the street with nowhere to go. A tale that offers a critical yet funny look at the relationship between parents and lazy, irresponsible children who wear them out.

A writer is working on a classic tale of dragons, princesses, heroes, and witches, but his conscience interrupts him constantly to criticize his work. He is determined to write the story, and pays no attention to the sarcastic comments that he must face at the end of each line. A hilarious novel which not only entertains but allows the reader a glimpse inside the creative process involved in writing a piece of fiction.

In Japan for the summer to practice the martial art of kempo, Lincoln sometimes feels like little more than a brown boy in a white gi. But with the help of his Japanese “brother,” Mitsuo, Lincoln sees that people everywhere, whether friends or kempo opponents, share passions much like his own—for baseball, family traditions, and new friendships.

Lincoln is in a jam when his basketball team at his new school—where the students are rich and mostly white—faces his old team from the barrio on the boards. How can he play his best game against his friends? Yet how can he betray his new teammates by not giving the game everything he’s got? No matter who wins, it looks like it will be a lose-lose situation for Lincoln.

Leo feels fascinated and intimidated by Stargirl, the new girl at school. She is a special girl, immune to the criticism of the rest of the kids; she also draws a lot of attention to herself, something that he would never do. She touches the lives of many, and her story becomes a lesson of how those who are considered different, almost always become immortal.

Narrative / Stories / Realistic Fiction In this unique collection of short stories, the small events of daily life reveal big themes— love and friendship, youth and growing up, success and failure. Calling on his own experiences of growing up in California’s Central Valley, poet Gary Soto brings to life the joys and pains of young people everywhere. The smart, tough, vulnerable kids in these stories are Latino, but their dreams and desires belong to all of us.

A little girl has lost her smile. Everyone at home and school asks her about it, but her smile isn’t there: it has stayed on the mouth of a little boy who made fun of her. What can she do to get it back? Who hasn’t lost their smile because of someone else? With just a few words and extremely expressive images, readers will see themselves in the main character, and will discover that nobody can take away their smile without their permission.

Candles, cut paper, “bread of the dead,” salt, marigold flowers: November has arrived, and with it, the Day of the Dead. The living prepare the altars and the dead embark on the journey, guided by the smoke of the incense. Once a year, the living and the dead meet to celebrate not death, but life.

During his search for her he meets an amazing variety of animals and learns much about his forest environment. A brief description of rain forests and the endangered animals featured in the story is included at the end of the book.

A quiet, shy, and humble little girl grew up to become a very important writer. How important was she? She was the first Latin American writer to receive the Nobel Prize in Literature, the most prestigious award in the world given to writers!

Pablo Neruda was a senator, a consul, an ambassador, a scholar, and one of the most famous poets in the world. But even though he was a very important man, he never forgot his inner child. Neruda collected books and other objects as if they were toys; he used to paint a moustache on his face using burnt cork; he loved birds, and, one time, he even tamed a mongoose. . .

An old man from La Mancha goes crazy after reading too many books about knights and chivalry. Believing himself one of those heroes, he leaves to travel all around Castilla in search of adventures with his squire, Sancho. With this book written in verse, children will start to connect with one of the most important works in world literature: Don Quijote de la Mancha.

The turtle in this story will take us on a journey necessary for the survival of her species. With her, we will cross the ocean until we reach the beach where she will lay her eggs. From her efforts, many new little turtles will grow up and continue the cycle begun by their mother. This beautiful and poetic story will help readers understand the importance of protecting endangered species.

Few people have had as much impact on history as Christopher Columbus. He was certain that his idea of traveling west from Europe was going to change the world, but not even he could imagine how much. Who was this man who convinced the king and queen of Spain to pay for a voyage that, according to the experts, was a crazy idea?

One day, the bees called for a grand assembly in the beehive to discuss why it was that they were always all squashed together in cramped working conditions. After complex calculations, they realized that there was one bee too many in their beehive! Through entertaining illustrations and humor, this delightful story explores such serious topics as prejudice and tolerance.

José de San Martín is the Libertador of Argentina, Chile, and Peru. He was born in the Americas to Spanish parents and returned with his family to Spain when he was only six years old. Even though he was only a little boy when he left the Americas, his love for the country of his birth was so strong that he abandoned a brilliant military career in Spain to join his countrymen in the war for Independence.

The Spanish painter Pablo Picasso is considered one of the most important and revolutionary artists of the 20th century. More than 20,000 of his works can be admired in museums around the world. From a very young age, he showed incredible artistic talent. His father was a painter who let Pablo finish his paintings ever since he was a little boy. Pablo Picasso died in 1973, but his work continues to influence many artists today.

An eleven-year-old girl, born in the U.S. into a family of Mexican immigrants, writes her autobiography to comply with a school assignment. Maria’s vibrant story promotes cultural and racial pride, selfacceptance, racial and gender equality, multiculturalism, writing as a key to selfunderstanding, and family ties.

José Martí was barely 16 years old when he began to fight for the independence of his homeland through his writing. At 17 he was declared an enemy of Spain and sentenced to six years of prison and hard labor. But that did not stop him. Martí dedicated his life to defending Cuba’s right to independence. Today he is remembered and honored as a man of integrity—brilliant and courageous—and as a lover of freedom and peace.

Born in Poland in 1867, Marie Curie was forbidden to attend the male-only University of Warsaw, so she enrolled at the Sorbonne in Paris to study physics and mathematics. There she met Pierre Curie, and the two soon married, forming one of the most famous scientific partnerships in history. They discovered two elements and won a Nobel Prize in 1903. Marie won another Nobel in 1911. She died in 1934, a victim of years of exposure to radiation.

Victoria is the daughter of a Roman senator who must travel to Jerusalem to collect the inheritance left to her by her grandfather, a Hebrew scribe converted to Christianity. Her family tries at all costs to marry her off to her cousin to keep the inheritance. Nevertheless, she is in love with a Christian slave to whom she writes letters describing her personal experiences.

In this unique collection of short stories, the small events of daily life reveal big themes— love and friendship, youth and growing up, success and failure. Calling on his own experiences of growing up in California’s Central Valley, poet Gary Soto brings to life the joys and pains of young people everywhere.

Max travels to Buenos Aires to study, but his real motive is Teresa. Upon arriving, he moves into a cheap room, whose window reminds him of a fish-eye lens, from which he observes the city. This short novel, defined by its author as a novel about the loneliness of youth, offers a look at the transition toward adulthood, far from all idealism, that both young and old can identify with.

Poetry / Narrative Poems Candles, cut paper, “bread of the dead,” salt, marigold flowers: November has arrived, and with it, the Day of the Dead. The living prepare the altars and the dead embark on the journey, guided by the smoke of the incense. Once a year, the living and the dead meet to celebrate not death, but life. Eightsyllable calaverita verses and a love story take place in this celebration of one of Mexico’s most emblematic holidays.

This is a book dedicated to birds. The author has composed an ode to their song, their special habits, their flight, and their beauty. The cuckoo, the swallow, the sparrow, the hummingbird, and the yellowthroat, among others, fly and zoom from page to page on the gusts of wind that boost their flight. The happy verses of the poems collected here represent the brilliantly colored feathers of these beautiful creatures.

Did you think Cinderella married the prince and lived happily ever after, or that the three little pigs outsmarted the wolf? Think again! Master storyteller Roald Dahl adds his own darkly comic twists to six favorite tales, complete with rambunctious rhymes and hilarious surprise endings. Included in the ELA Common Core Text Exemplar list.

With the mischievous intention of offering pleasant moments, the author pushes aside reason and offers a series of pieces in which play is the secret ingredient for learning the meaning of words. For example: a question mark is not the same thing as questioning a guy named Mark. This work will introduce children to the rules of language in an ingenious way, and will motivate them to craft their own “wordwitchery.”

This book—containing tongue twisters, riddles, puzzles, and concrete poems about all possible topics—is special because the words change shape, position, and meaning. Each page is a game that invites readers to think and imagine, enriching their vocabulary in a delightful way. Poetry is just a pretext to show the possibilities of language so that readers will take it in their own hands, feel the weight of it, and do with it as they will.

Emilio Lome specializes in giving life to words; that is, in creating sonorous games that can be told, sung, performed, turned into choral poetry, and above all, read and enjoyed.

These poems speak about the nature of the Chilean countryside, of its animals, its aromas, and its stars. These are verses that invite us to direct our gaze from the Earth to the sky, from the smallest things to the most magnificent. The rhymes and poems compiled in this anthology introduce children to the works of Gabriela Mistral, the only female Latin American author to win the Nobel Prize for Literature.

Each animal has some characteristic that makes it spectacular. In the farm, forest, garden, jungle, steppe, or river, this book tests children’s—and adults’—knowledge of animals, wherever they might live.

Each poem hides several clues to some of the most common dishes prepared for the four meals of the day. Young readers never had this much fun where food is concerned!

This is an anthology created to introduce young readers to the feeling of the great poets: Antonio Machado, Juan Ramón Jiménez, Rafael Alberti, Federico García Lorca, etc. It is a work that is already a classic; a guide for adults to share the eternal voices of Spanish poetry with children.

Literature

By way of riddles, different characteristics of an animal are presented so that together, children and adults can put two and two together and figure out the answers.

For restless little readers who have no interest in poetry, this unique book will help them realize that poetry can be truly fun too! The catchy verses mix together a lot of the monsters that visit us in our nightmares: Frankenstein, Dracula, mummies . . . And along with these poems kids will find different verses to name their feelings and discover that good poetry just never goes out of style.

Kids hate a whole host of things: from waking up early and cleaning up their room— not to mention picking up after themselves—to going to the dentist. They will identify with the poems in this book and will laugh over the exaggeratedly hateful situations.

With a healthy dose of humor, Kaleidoscope presents the world of childhood through the eyes of an adult. It shares with the reader situations of daily life: defending the right to eat pizza and not vegetables, the first time your children go to the movies alone, the first school crushes, and nighttime fears, among others.

Poetry / Humor “The viking didn’t have very many possessions; he never wanted to be tied to life in the village with its sleepy firs and its immense bonfires.” This is a modern epic poem that takes us on a surprising journey toward the place where answers live, where true love hides.

Poetry / Anthology

Both Bécquer’s Rhymes and Legends can be considered some of the most representative expressions of the Romantic era, but are also a symbol of an entire branch of literature.

This short anthology takes a tour through the works of one of the foremost poets in the Latin American avant-garde. It includes examples of his first poems of reinvention of language up to the culminating examples of creationism, in which he turns to deconstruction so that something new and beautiful emerges. No other avant-garde practitioner was as innovative as Huidobro.

Literature

Poetry / Anthology / Various subgenres This anthology brings together some of the most intense verses about love that have ever been written. It offers a series of poems that strive to explain what love is. Mexican poets as well as international writers like Edgar Allan Poe, Rubén Darío, and David Huerta, among others, meet up in this alluring and emotional stroll.

AUTHENTIC TITLE

Literature

With apparent spontaneity and simplicity, his verses, along with the depth of their contents, make Rhymes the essence and a fundamental work of Spanish lyric poetry.

Literature

Poetry / Anthology / Various subgenres This anthology of love poetry for young adults brings together great Spanish and Latin American authors from the 20th century that take on the topic of love from every angle: the memory of a childhood sweetheart, the love between parent and child, passionate love, unrequited love, and love that only absence inspires. In this carefully curated volume, the reader can clearly sense the intention behind the work: to show, as the anthologist says, that poetry is a way to write love . . . and to write life.
