A 95 mph fastball, but the boy's not even on a team. Every time he gets up on the mound he loses it.But at his private school, they don't expect much else from him. Danny's brown. Half-Mexican brown. And growing up in San Diego that close to the border means everyone else knows exactly who he is before he even opens his mouth. Before they find out he can't speak Spanish, and before they realize his mom has blond hair and blue eyes, they've got him pegged. Danny's convinced it's his whiteness that sent his father back to Mexico. And that's why he's spending the summer with his dad's family. Only, to find himself, he might just have to face the demons he refuses to see right in front of his face.From the Hardcover edition.

by José Ignacio ValenzuelaUn cuento acerca de la iniciación en el mundo de la lectura y la escritura, a través de la inspiradora huella que una abuela fuera de serie deja en un niño. Ilustraciones de Patricio Betteo Mmm... Yo sólo sé que mi abuela está loca. Ah, y que tiene la culpa de todo. Sí, ¡de todo! Siempre hay alguien culpable de que a uno le guste eso que tanto le gusta, o de que no le guste eso que nunca le ha gustado. El caso es que entre su peinado de Darth Vader, su obsesión de ganarse trofeos por los poemas que escribe y esa manía burlona de recitar versos a todo pulmón cuando bajo del autobús escolar, entre risotadas y con cara de trágame tierra (y todo para obligarme a entrar rápido a su casa), yo me estoy volviendo loco también. Mis papás tienen un nuevo trabajo, y no tengo otra opción que quedarme por las tardes en casa de Petunia, mi abuela. Pero sospecho que algo se trae entre manos, y no me lo puedo perder...

by Margriet RuursDo you get books from a public library in your town or even in your school library? In many remote areas of the world, there are no library buildings. In many countries, books are delivered in unusual ways: by bus, boat, elephant, donkey, train, even by wheelbarrow. Why would librarians go to the trouble of packing books on the backs of elephants or driving miles to deliver books by bus? Because, as one librarian in Azerbaijan says, "Books are as important to us as air or water!" This is an intriguing photo essay, a celebration of books, readers, and libraries.
