Molla e i saltasassi
by Rafael EstradaVi ho mai raccontato la storia di Molla? Molla era un bambino con il naso da topo, lo sguardo sognante e i capelli da porcospino. Credeva di poter fare qualunque cosa gli venisse in mente, tanto era buono ed innocente. —Mi piacerebbe saper saltare come i saltasassi —disse un giorno, quasi senza sapere perché, abbastanza forte da essere sentito da tutti. Sua madre, Balestra, sorrise come fanno le mamme; Elastico, suo padre, tossì come fanno i papà; e il nonno mosse il capo su e giù. Balestra conosceva più di chiunque altro la tendenza di Molla ad immaginare cose impossibili, e mentre gli pettinava gli indomabili capelli, con tutta la pazienza di una madre, gli chiese: —Che pazzia è questa di sognare di saltare, come se non avessimo i saltasassi? —Ma mamma, ti assicuro che non è una pazzia! Sono sicuro che con un po’ di esercizio ci si potrebbe riuscire. —Figlio mio, ti rendi conto che sarebbe come dire che annaffiandoti tutti i giorni, prima o poi comincerai a fare fiori e frutti? Molla la guardò di sghimbescio e arricciò il naso, sforzandosi di capire quello che sua madre voleva dirgli. Poi, con un sorriso, le rispose: —Tu lo sai che non è la stessa cosa, mamma… Nemmeno per un momento pensò di mettersi a discutere con suo figlio, perché sapeva quanto potesse essere ostinato. E così continuò a pettinarlo guardando verso la finestra, forse nella speranza che da lì potesse giungere qualche risposta. Poiché così non fu, si strinse nelle spalle rinunciando a domare sia Molla che i suoi ciuffi ribelli. —Coraggio, tesoro —gli disse, —fai colazione. Tutto questo succedeva durante una mattina soleggiata, quando l’inverno cominciava già ad accomiatarsi dalla Pietraia. L’erba si lasciava cadere ora da una parte, ora dall’altra, secondo il volere del vento.
Molly & Pim and the Millions of Stars
by Martine MurrayFor fans of Katherine Rundell’s Rooftoppers comes a story about mothers and daughters and magical trees that Rebecca Stead calls “an utter delight.” All Molly wants is to be normal like her friend Ellen Palmer. Ellen, with her neat braids and a tidy house and a mother and father who are home for dinner every night. But Molly’s mom spends her mornings tramping through the woods, looking for ingredients for her potions. Their house is not neat, and their rooster, the Gentleman, runs wild in their yard. And it is the Gentleman that angers their grumpy neighbors, the Grimshaws. So Molly’s mom makes a potion that will grow a tree between their houses. When Molly’s mom accidentally drinks the potion and turns into the tree, Molly is determined to get her back. But with the Grimshaws planning to cut down the tree branches that reach onto their property, time is of the essence. With the help of her mysterious classmate Pim Wilder, Molly sets out to save her mother and discovers the wonder that lies in the ordinary. Praise for Molly & Pim and the Millions of Stars: “Open-hearted and magical—an utter delight.” —Rebecca Stead, author of When You Reach Me and Goodbye, Stranger “A beautiful, magical story, full of surprises and brimming with wisdom.” —Karen Foxlee, author of Ophelia and the Marvelous Boy
Molly Bannaky
by Alice Mcgill Chris K. SoentpietOn a cold gray morning in 1683, Molly Walsh sat on a stool tugging at the udder of an obstinate cow. When she spilled the milk, she was brought before the court for stealing. Because she could read, Molly escaped the typical punishment of death on the gallows. At the age of seventeen, the English dairymaid was exiled from her country and sentenced to work as an indentured servant in British Colonial America. Molly worked for a planter in Maryland for seven long years. Then she was given an ox hitched to a cart, some supplies-and her freedom. That a lone woman should stake land was unheard of. That she would marry an African slave was even more so. Yet Molly prospered, and with her husband Bannaky, she turned a one-room cabin in the wilderness into a thriving one hundred-acre farm. And one day she had the pleasure of writing her new grandson's name in her cherished Bible: Benjamin Banneker.<P><P> Jane Addams Children’s Book Award Winner
