An Mei's
Strange and Wondrous Journey, story by Stephan Molnar-Fenton,
illustrated by Vivienne Flesher.
"I was born on a train as it passed through a long, dark tunnel.
. . when the train broke into the light, I saw my mother's face for
the first time.'' So begins An Mei's journey, one that takes her from
the steps of an orphanage in Wuhan, China, "across an ocean so
wide I thought it would never end" to the very different worlds
of New England.

Angels
Ride Bikes, poetry by Francisco X. Alarcón, illustrations
by Maya Christina Gonzalez.
You are invited to visit fall in Los Angeles-- the city of Angels---where
dreams can come true. Mariachis play like angels, angels ride bikes,
and the earth dances the cha-cha-cha. The poetic themes in this book
include memories of a little boy, now become poet and teacher, who
learned from his mother that hard work and education make dreams become
reality. |
