Descripción del libro

After receiving a frantic letter from her newly-wed cousin begging for someone to save her from a mysterious doom, Noemi Taboada heads to High Place, a distant house in the Mexican countryside. She's not sure what she will find--her cousin's husband, a handsome Englishman, is a stranger, and Noemi knows little about the region. Noemi is also an unlikely rescuer: She's a glamorous debutante, and her chic gowns and perfect red lipstick are more suited for cocktail parties than amateur sleuthing. But she's also tough and smart, with an indomitable will, and she is not afraid: Not of her cousin's new husband, who is both menacing and alluring; not of his father, the ancient patriarch who seems to be fascinated by Noemi; and not even of the house itself, which begins to invade Noemi's dreams with visions of blood and doom. Her only ally in this inhospitable abode is the family's youngest son. Shy and gentle, he seems to want to help Noemi, but might also be hiding dark knowledge of his family's past. For there are many secrets behind the walls of High Place. The family's once colossal wealth and faded mining empire kept them from prying eyes, but as Noemi digs deeper she unearths stories of violence and madness.

Manos Que Cuentan

Sign language is a great tool to improve bonding and communication with babies. From very early on, babies understand the signs and imitate them with their little hands. Through them, not only can they show us what they need or prefer, but they can also tell us what they think, what they feel or what they remember. This book is not a manual on how to speak sign language, but on how through the signs of that language you can communicate with your baby when they do not speak or have a limited vocabulary. Surely a way of communicating in which words and pampering go together is going to be...

SOS ayuda para padres

La comunicación de los padres con sus hijos se vuelve muchas veces, difícil; y en algunos casos insostenible. El fenómeno es natural. Un muchacho está pasando constantemente por procesos de análisis y comprensión de la realidad circundante. El método de experimentación será el que mejor le permita al pequeño apropiarse de conocimientos sólidos sobre la vida en convivencia que impone la sociedad.

With the first book on conscious uncoupling, bestselling author and licensed psychotherapist Katherine Woodward Thomas forges a new path for those in the midst of a breakup or divorce.

Descifra el Codigo de la Comunicacion

La comunicación entre las parejas se ha analizado minuciosamente en miles de libros y artículos, entonces, ¿por qué continúa siendo el problema número uno en el matrimonio? "Porque", dice el doctor Emerson Eggerichs, "la mayoría de los cónyuges no saben que hablan dos idiomas distintos. Se envían mensajes 'codificados', pero no descifran el código hasta que se dan cuenta que ella escucha para oír el lenguaje del amor y él escucha para oír el lenguaje del respeto". El libro de gran éxito de ventas del doctor Eggerichs, Amor y respeto, desencadenó una revolución en la manera en...
