Ramones (Band Records #Volumen)
by Joe Padilla Soledad Romero MariñoLos Ramones explicados a tus hijos. La increíble historia de cuatro amigos que se convirtieron en leyendas del punk rock. Si hay una historia universal de superación esa es la de los Ramones. Y sirve y gusta a todo el mundo. Cuatro chavales de Queens lograron el éxito sin saber apenas tocar un instrumento. ¿Su secreto? El amor por la música y la cultura de serie B. Joey, Johnny, Dee Dee y Tommy Ramone son los nombres artísticos de estos cuatro «hermanos» del barrio de Forest Hills, en Queens, que montaron en 1974 su primera formación sin saber que estaban a la vanguardia musical mundial. Tras dos años de tocar en garitos de mala muerte y medio triunfar en la sala de moda neoyorquina, el CBGB, los fichó la discográfica Sire para grabar su primer álbum, el homónimo Ramones. De ahí al mítico concierto en la sala Roundhouse de Londres en julio de 1976 mediaron unos pocos meses. Podría decirse que dieron el pistoletazo mundial al punk: recibieron en el backstage a grupos que por entonces empezaban, como los Clash o los Sex Pistols. Los inicios de la banda, hasta su primera consagración, están contados en este álbum al alcance de todos los niños y mayores. Una historia de amistad y superación como nunca la has visto. Y más cool que nunca. Reseña:«Abrir el libro Ramones (ilustrado y de pequeño formato) es abrir el baúl de los recuerdos de aquellos chavales que en los 70 llevaban un característico corte de pelo. Flequillo largo que tapaba los ojos. Un peinado que marcó a una tribu: los punk.»Carmen Carbonell, Libertad Digital

Rampant
by Diana PeterfreundForget everything you ever knew about unicorns . . . Real unicorns are venomous, man-eating monsters with huge fangs and razor-sharp horns. Fortunately, they've been extinct for a hundred and fifty years. Or not. Astrid had always scoffed at her eccentric mother's stories about killer unicorns. But when one of the monsters attacks her boyfriend--thereby ruining any chance of him taking her to the prom--Astrid finds herself headed to Rome to train as a unicorn hunter at the ancient cloisters the hunters have used for centuries. However, at the cloisters all is not what it seems. Outside, the unicorns wait to attack. And within, Astrid faces other, unexpected threats: from the crumbling, bone-covered walls that vibrate with a terrible power to the hidden agendas of her fellow hunters to--perhaps most dangerously of all--her growing attraction to a handsome art student . . . an attraction that could jeopardize everything.
Ramsey Milholland
by Booth TarkingtonIt all started when he was young -- all the rules and expectations that made him look stupid, and worse than stupid. Like the time Miss Ridgely ordered him to the blackboard, and tried to stimulate him with hints and suggestion -- Miss Ridgely, Ramsey knew, found him mere protoplasm, so far as knowing decimals went -- and so she summoned to the board little Dora Yocum, star of the class, and said, "You stand still, Ramsey. Stay right where you are, and try to learn something from the way Dora does it. " The class giggled, and Ramsey stood, but learned nothing. His conspicuousness was unendurable, because all of his schoolmates naturally found more entertainment in watching him than in following the performance of the capable Dora. And it was like that, month after month . . . and then year after year. But he would make himself good in the eyes of the world. Ramsey knew he would. He "swore" he would. Booth Tarkington (1869-1946), two-time winner of the Pulitzer Prize, wrote such keenly observed novels of American life as "Gentle Julia "and "In the Arena. "

Rancho Sespe (Images of America)
by Evie Ybarra Becky Morales Ernie MoralesIn 1833, Rancho Sespe began as a Mexican land grant with 8,881 acres stretching along the Santa Clara River from Piru to Santa Paula. The face of Rancho Sespe is not just the bunkhouse or the family housing that stood on this land; it is, rather, seen in the stories of those who lived and worked on the ranch. Their struggles and triumphs are shared in this book and illustrated with many vintage photographs. The Spaldings developed Rancho Sespe into a very successful ranch for citrus and livestock for over 30 years, and it became a quasi-feudal society as a self-contained working ranch in the 20th century. When the ranch later sold, it ushered in changes for Rancho Sespe to become a part of the modern age, and gone was the worker housing along with other remnants of the past. Many of the families continue to live in the surrounding area generation after generation.

Randolph Caldecott: The Man Who Could Not Stop Drawing
by Leonard S. MarcusRandolph Caldecott is best known as the namesake of the award that honors picture book illustrations, and in this inventive biography, leading children's literature scholar Leonard Marcus examines the man behind the medal. In an era when the steam engine fueled an industrial revolution and train travel exploded people's experience of space and time, Caldecott was inspired by his surroundings to capture action, movement, and speed in a way that had never before been seen in children's picture books. Thoroughly researched and featuring extensive archival material and a treasure trove of previously unpublished drawings, including some from Caldecott's very last sketchbook, Leonard Marcus's luminous biography shows why Caldecott was indeed the father of the modern picture book and how his influence lives on in the books we love today.
