By Richard Mead

This is a great book that gives some good and short answers to many questions. Communication is sometimes a little bit tricky. Some actions or hand signals can mean different things, especially in other countries. Our senses also communicate to our brain and let us know what is going on around us. We communicate by way of writing, painting, or through stain glass pictures. This book explores the different ways we communicate.

Este libro interesante, nos da respuestas cortas y precisas a muchas preguntas.

Nuestros sentidos también nos comunican por medio de nuestro cerebro y nos da a saber lo que esta pasando a nuestro alrededor. Nos comunicamos a través de escritura, pintura, o por medio de pinturas echas en vidrio. Este libro explora las diferentes maneras de comunicación.

Review: The Factory

By
The Factory By Catherine Egan New York, NY : Scholastic Inc., 2025. Fiction. 306 pages.  Thirteen-year-old Asher Doyle has been invited to join the Factory, a secretive research facility in the desert which ostensibly extracts renewable energy from the electromagnetic fields of its young recruits. But Asher soon realizes something sinister is going on. Kids are getting sick. The adults who run the Factory seem to be keeping secrets. And the extraction process is not only painful and exhausting, but existentially troubling.

National Geographic Book of Animal Poetry

By DeeDee
National Geographic Book of Animal Poetry Edited by J. Patrick Lewis National Geographic, 2012, 183 p. Poetry In this beautiful poetry collection, the National Children's Poet Laureate, J. Patrick Lewis, has teamed up with the amazing photographers at National Geographic. The result is 200 poems about animals, all illustrated with stunning nature photography.  The poems are well chosen and include rhyming, free verse, and shape poetry. Some of the poems are funny, many are contemplative and all are nicely typeset on top of the full color photographs. One of my favorites is a shape poem about flamingos, with a photograph of a flock of flamingos which seem to be standing the the shape of a flamingo (how did they do that?).  Lewis ends the collection with a brief but interesting section about writing animal poetry.  This selection is sure to turn any animal lover into a poetry lover.
