La sombra vegetal

Stephen loves visiting his maternal grandparents in the country. When he visits, he plays outside, goes fishing, and goes for long hikes. He also loves visiting his paternal grandmother, who lives in the city. When he visits her, they take walks to the local shops. To be a good grandson, Stephen picks up after himself, helps wash up after dinner, and listens to what his grandparents tell him to do. The brightly colored illustrations and manageable text make this book perfect for story-time listeners and emerging readers.

Para mantener a sus cinco hermanos, la joven Juliette se ve obligada a abandonar la escuela... y la provincia: una tía que vive en París le ha conseguido trabajo en el servicio de una casa importante. En su carta solo figura la dirección: 81, rue Antoine Mesmer. Pero todo París conoce la mansión como la «casa de los cien mil fantasmas». Pronto Juliette será puesta en jaque por una auténtica legión de espectros. Pero en lugar de resignarse a vivir con los pelos de punta, como el resto de la servidumbre, la joven se empeñará en desentrañar el misterio que acecha en cada habitación ...

El factor común de esta emotiva colección de cuentos del escritor Héctor Hidalgo, radica en el resguardo y protección de los animales y sus entonos naturales.

As Osito polar begins, the little polar bear returns home after a long day. He plays with his favorite toy, eats a nice dinner, takes a bubble bath, puts on his pajamas, brushes his teeth, and jumps into bed hoping for sweet dreams. The furry white texture on this cloth book is like that of the book's hero, while the appealing illustrations and very simple text tell a story of a polar bear cub who does all the things that little boys and girls do every day.
