Real Sisters Pretend
by Nicolle Tadgell Megan Dowd LambertThis warm, engaging story, which unfolds entirely through the conversation of two adopted sisters, was inspired by the author's own daughters, whom she overheard talking about how adoption made them real sisters even though they have different birth parents and do not look alike. I liked how they took care of one another in their pretend-play scenario about climbing a mountain, Lambert says, and I loved how they also took care of one another s feelings as they talked about adoption. Real Sisters Pretend captures these interactions perfectly and movingly. Told with simple words and playful illustrations, this book touches on the topics of adoption, two moms, and multiracial family life. Illustrated by award-winning artist Nicole Tadgell. Modern families can look very different from the nuclear families of yesteryear, but as Lambert says in the book's introduction, No matter how a family comes to be, the most important thing is for everyone to feel loved, safe, and cared for. Real Sisters Pretend is a great vehicle for sharing that love and reassurance.

Realeza licántropa
by María Victoria Madruga Flores Vianka Van BokkemCuando tenía dieciocho años, mi padre, el Rey Andrew Reginald de Escocia, mi hermana de dieciséis años, la Princesa Stephanie Christina, y yo, la Princesa Aleida Eleonora, emprendimos nuestro viaje desde Melrose hasta Edimburgo. Seis caballos del establo real tiraban de nuestro carruaje. Ocho soldados cabalgaban al frente de éste y otros ocho lo hacían detrás. Se hizo de noche y una bella luna llena lucía en el cielo. Mientras mi padre y mi hermana dormían, descorrí las rojas cortinas de la ventana. De repente, me pareció ver a un grupo de enormes criaturas corriendo entre los árboles en el lado izquierdo del camino. Mi ventana se empañó y mientras me disponía a limpiarla, el carruaje se tambaleó unas cuantas veces. Cuando por fin se estabilizó, escuché múltiples disparos, gritos horripilantes y un sonoro aullido parecido al de un lobo.
