By Laura Ellen Anderson

Pero hay lugares en los que la gente se empeña en que guarde silencio. En la biblioteca, en la escuela, e incluso en casa, cuando su hermanito duerme… Aunque al principio le parece una lata, al final aprenderá que, si no está todo el tiempo armando jaleo, puede escuchar cosas maravillosas. Laura Ellen Anderson, autora del éxito de ventas ¡No quiero el cabello rizado!, nos presenta una divertida historia sobre la necesidad del silencio y de escuchar en estos tiempos de ruido y de prisa.--Publisher

Stand Tall by Joan Bauer

By DeeDee
Stand Tall By Siena Siegel by Joan Bauer Putnam, 2002, 182 pgs Realistic Fiction Tree is 12 years old and over 6 feet tall. That would be great if he were a basketball player, but he is not. Dealing with his unusual size is not Tree's only challenge. Tree's parents have recently gone through a divorce, and his grandfather has had his leg amputated as the result of an old Vietnam War injury. The strength of this book is the characterizations. All of the main characters are dimensional and sympathetic. Bauer sets the characters in real and often funny family situations. Best of all is the character of Tree. He is boy with a heart to match his stature. This is a great book for boys or girls ages 9-12, as a read aloud or for individual reading. This book could also be a good Rx book for children whose families are going through divorce, or for anyone who feels like they don't fit in.
