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

KPop Demon Hunters has been one of the most talked-about movies of the summer. If you loved this movie as much as I did, you don't want the magic (or the music) to stop.

Review: Just Shine!

By
Just Shine! Written by Sonia Sotomayor Illustrated by Jacqueline Alcantara New York, NY : Philomel, an imprint of Penguin Random House LLC, 2025. Picture Book. At the beginning of each new year, a lot of people like to set goals for themselves. Often, these tend to be number-oriented: a specified number of minutes reading, a certain number of steps walked each day, or even goals related to saving money.

In recent conversations with friends and family, we have talked about goals that are more skill-related or focused on bringing joy into the world and our personal lives. In line with that way of thinking, I am recommending this book to everyone! This book would be amazing for discussing goals with people who prefer to have goals that are different from traditional "number-oriented" ones. The cover and the artwork left me feeling happy and very invested in the story the author wanted to ...
