Un Dragón a Dieta

Carles Cano, Illustraded by Fran Bravo
Editorial Everest, S.A., 30 pg., Picture Book

Dragon is so big, one day, finally he decides to go on a diet. He set out fine linen, fine china, and of course his best silver set. All the fan fare to eat just one olive, and of course, he eats it whole, with pit and all. A few minutes latter he has the worst tummy ache he has ever had. He calls the doctor who comes as soon as possible and a whole set of events happen. This is the cutest and funny book I read in a while. The whole family will enjoy it!

Este dragón es tan grande que  un día decide ponerse a dieta. Cubre la mesa con mantel de lino fino, pone su loza fina, y por supuesto sus cubiertos de plata. Toda la fanfarronada para comer solo una aceituna, y por supuesto se la come de un bocado, con pepa y todo. En unos minutos, se retuerce del peor dolor de estomago que ha  tenido en su vida. Llama al doctor, el cual viene tan pronto como puede y comienza a pasar una serie de increíble acontecimientos. Este es uno de los mas curiosos y chistosos libros que he leído en buen tiempo . ¡¡Le gustará a toda la familia!!

Painting for Peace in Ferguson

By
Painting for Peace in Ferguson By Carol Swartout Klein Treehouse Publishing Group, 2015. Nonfiction. When the city of Ferguson was overrun with so much hate and despair that homes and businesses had to be boarded up to protect property, citizens of the community decided to bring a message of hope by painting the boarded windows. Klein’s rhyming text supports the photographs of the hundreds of artists and volunteers and their artwork as they bring the messages of peace, hope, love, and that by being united they can make a difference. A great book to show children how a community rallied to make a positive change and that even a small gesture can make a huge difference. A great discussion opener on how we should treat each other.

Dragon Run

By
Dragon Run by Patrick Matthews Scholastic, 2013.  336 pgs.  Fantasy      Al Pilgrommor is excited for Testing Day, when he will receive his rank, a tattooed number on the back of his neck, and a path forward to his future occupation and life.  He feels confident because his parents were fours on a scale of seven, but he is worried for his friend Wisp who doesn't have much of a chance of scoring above a two at best. But when Al is scored a zero, he not only has no prospects, he may lose his life as the dreaded Cullers are unleashed to kill him and his family to purify the land's bloodlines.  Al's world is ruled by dragons--the lords and supposed creators of humankind--so he thinks that even if he survives, he will have to make his living as a beggar or thief. But when Al sticks up for his Earther friend in front of Magister Ludi, he is drawn into the struggle of a secret organization hoping to destroy the Cullers, and perhaps the dragons them...
