By Lili Ferreirós, Illustrated by Sonja Wimmer
Cuento de Luz SL, 32 pg.,Picture Book

Juan is a unique boy, he whistle instead of saying his first word, so by the time he goes to school, he is not talking, he only whistles. He is so amazing with his gift, that birds follow him. He inspires all the kids at school with his whistle, he could make them feel all the subjects they were learning, and the kids love him for that. Then a friendship changes things......You have to read this book! The illustrations are amazing and helps tell the story. After I read this book, I was compelled to tell you about it!

Juan es un niño especial, en lugar de decir su primera palabra el silbó. Cuando es tiempo de ir a la escuela todabía no habla, solo silba. El don que tiene de silbar hace que los pajaritos lo sigan; Juan inspira a los niños de la escuela, y por medio de su silbido sienten lo que estan aprendiendo. Una amistad cambia todo..... Tienen que leer este libro, las ilustraciones son estraordinarias y ayudan a contar este cuento. ¡Depues que leí este libro me sentí que debería de contarles hacerca de este hermoso libro!
This book is also available in English. Title: Jon's Whistle

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 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 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...
