Walking through the misty Florida woods one morning, twelve-year-old Rob Horton is stunned to encounter a tiger - a real-life, very large tiger - pacing back and forth in a cage. What's more, on the same extraordinary day, he meets Sistine Bailey, a girl who shows her feelings as readily as Rob hides his. As they learn to trust each other, and ultimately, to be friends, Rob and Sistine prove that some things - like memories, and heartaches, and tigers - can't be locked up forever.

An extraordinary retelling of the Baba Yaga myth, this debut novel will wrap itself around your heart and never let go.
All 12-year-old Marinka wants is a friend. A real friend. Not like her house with chicken legs. Sure, the house can play games like tag and hide-and-seek, but Marinka longs for a human companion. Someone she can talk to and share secrets with. But that's tough when your grandmother is a Yaga, a guardian who guides the dead into the afterlife. It's even harder when you live in a house that wanders all over the world . . . carrying you with it. Even worse, Marinka is being trained to be a Yaga. That means no school, no parties - and no playmates that stick around for more than a day.
With a mix of whimsy, humor, and adventure, this debut novel will wrap itself around your heart and never let go.

There's not much that upsets young Valli. Even though her days are spent picking coal and fighting with her cousins, life in the coal town of Jharia, India, is the only life she knows. The only sight that fills her with terror are the monsters who live on the other side of the train tracks -- the lepers. Valli and the other children throw stones at them. No matter how hard her life is, she tells herself, at least she will never be one of them.
Then she discovers that she is not living with family after all, that her "aunt" was a stranger who was paid money to take Valli off her own family's hands. She decides to leave Jharia … and so begins a series of adventures that takes her to Kolkata, the city of the gods.
It's not so bad. Valli finds that she really doesn't need much to live. She can "borrow" the things she needs and then pass them on to people who need them more than she does. It helps that though her bare feet become raw wounds as she makes her way around the city, she somehow feels no pain. But when she happens to meet a doctor on the ghats by the river, Valli learns that she has leprosy. Despite being given a chance to receive medical care, she cannot bear the thought that she is one of those monsters she has always feared, and she flees, to an uncertain life on the street.

The other five demigods have to put aside their grief and follow Percy's instructions to find the mortal side of the Doors of Death. If they can fight their way through the Gaea's forces, and Percy and Annabeth can survive the House of Hades, then the Seven will be able to seal the Doors from both sides and prevent the giants from raising Gaea. But, Leo wonders, if the Doors are sealed, how will Percy and Annabeth be able to escape? They have no choice. If the demigods don't succeed, Gaea's armies will never die. They have no time.

Looking across the breakfast table one morning, twelve-year-old Liza feels dread wash over her. Although her younger brother, Patrick, appears the same, Liza knows that he is actually quite different. She is certain that the spindlers—evil, spiderlike beings—came during the night and stole his soul. And Liza is also certain that she is the only one who can rescue him.
Armed with little more than her wits and a huge talking rat for a guide, Liza descends into the dark and ominous underground to save Patrick's soul. Her quest is far from easy: she must brave tree-snakes, the Court of Stones, and shape-shifting scawgs before facing her greatest challenge in the spindlers' lair, where more than just Patrick's soul is at stake.

En este libro vamos a conocer el (o uno de los) momentos de veintidós músicos claves en la historia de la música popular, en los que estos descubrieron que la música iba a ser el motor de su vida. Las historias están basadas en hechos reales, pero son creaciones literarias en torno a ellos. Algunas escenas están documentadas en biografías (como el encuentro en el andén de Mick y Keith) y otras se basan en circunstancias históricas, pero son ficción pura (como el viaje en bus de Sting). Los otros artistas que aparecen en este libro son: Madonna, David Bowie, Charly García, Elvis Presley, Freddie Mercury, Aretha Franklin, John Lennon, Violeta Parra, Kurt Cobain, Lou Reed, Lady Gaga, Bob Dylan, Elton John, Adele, Jimi Hendrix, Eric Clapton, Stevie Nicks, Ed Sheeran, Prince y Bono. Marcelo Comparini y Rosario Montiel, con las extraordinarias ilustraciones de Olea como imprescindible complemento aterrizan las grandes historias de músicos que amamos, momentos que pudieron ser ínfimos, pero que ayudaron a definirlos, a convertirlos en las figuras que despertaron la idolatría de millones a través del mundo.
RESEÑA:
Con algo de imaginación y con un leguaje al alcance de cualquiera, las anécdotas de este libro permiten entender de dónde vino el impulso que los convirtió en lo que son o lo que fueron. Y de pasada, ofrecen hasta una ruta de exploración para los que empiezan este largo y sinuoso camino de la apreciación musical y el fanatismo, si se siguen las pistas que los autores han ido dejando en el camino.
En definitiva, relatos entrañables, personajes fundamentales, canciones imprescindibles. Historias para comenzar a aprender y gozar. Música para toda la vida.

There is a dangerous secret object hidden within the castle walls, and Harry believes it's his responsibility to prevent it from falling into evil hands. But doing so will bring him into contact with forces more terrifying than he ever could have imagined.

Percy is confused. When he awoke after his long sleep, he didn't know much more than his name. His brain-fuzz is lingering, even after the wolf Lupa told him he is a demigod and trained him to fight. Somehow Percy managed to make it to the camp for half-bloods, despite the fact that he had to continually kill monsters that, annoyingly, would not stay dead. But the camp doesn't ring any bells with him.
Hazel is supposed to be dead. When she lived before, she didn't do a very good job of it. When the Voice took over her mother and commanded Hazel to use her "gift" for an evil purpose, Hazel couldn't say no. Now, because of her mistake, the future of the world is at risk.
Frank is a klutz. His grandmother claims he is descended from ancient heroes, but he doesn't even know who his father is. He keeps hoping Apollo will claim him, because the only thing he is good at is archery. His big and bulky physique makes him feel like a clumsy ox, especially in front of Hazel, his closest friend at camp. He trusts her completely-enough, even, to share the secret he holds close to his heart.
Beginning at the "other" camp for half-bloods and extending as far north as the land beyond the gods, this breathtaking second installment in the Heroes of Olympus series introduces new demigods, revives fearsome monsters, and features other remarkable creatures, all of whom are destined to play a part in the most important quest of all: the Prophecy of Seven.

Jason has a problem. He doesn't remember anything before waking up on a school bus holding hands with a girl. Apparently she's his girlfriend Piper, his best friend is a kid named Leo, and they're all students in the Wilderness School, a boarding school for "bad kids." What he did to end up here, Jason has no idea-except that everything seems very wrong.
Piper has a secret. Her father has been missing for three days, and her vivid nightmares reveal that he's in terrible danger. Now her boyfriend doesn't recognize her, and when a freak storm and strange creatures attack during a school field trip, she, Jason, and Leo are whisked away to someplace called Camp Half-Blood. What is going on?
Leo has a way with tools. His new cabin at Camp Half-Blood is filled with them. Seriously, the place beats Wilderness School hands down, with its weapons training, monsters, and fine-looking girls. What's troubling is the curse everyone keeps talking about, and that a camper's gone missing. Weirdest of all, his bunkmates insist they are all-including Leo-related to a god. Rick Riordan, the best-selling author of the Percy Jackson series, pumps up the action and suspense in The Lost Hero, the first book in The Heroes of Olympus series. Fans of demi-gods, prophesies, and quests will be left breathless--and panting for Book Two.

Though the Greek and Roman crewmembers of the Argo II have made progress in their many quests, they still seem no closer to defeating the earth mother, Gaea. Her giants have risen-all of them-and they're stronger than ever. They must be stopped before the Feast of Spes, when Gaea plans to have two demigods sacrificed in Athens. She needs their blood-the blood of Olympus-in order to wake. The demigods are having more frequent visions of a terrible battle at Camp Half-Blood. The Roman legion from Camp Jupiter, led by Octavian, is almost within striking distance. Though it is tempting to take the Athena Parthenos to Athens to use as a secret weapon, the friends know that the huge statue belongs back on Long Island, where it might be able to stop a war between the two camps.The Athena Parthenos will go west; the Argo II will go east. The gods, still suffering from multiple personality disorder, are useless. How can a handful of young demigods hope to persevere against Gaea's army of powerful giants? As dangerous as it is to head to Athens, they have no other option. They have sacrificed too much already. And if Gaea wakes, it is game over.

Hailed as “the heir to Roald Dahl” by The Spectator, the UK’s #1 bestselling children’s author, David Walliams, will have fans of Jeff Kinney and Rachel Renee Russell in stitches!
David Walliams burst on to the American scene with his New York Times bestseller Demon Dentist, and now he’s bringing his signature humor to this raucous tale of prison breaks and heists gone wrong in Bad Dad.
Frank’s dad was a champion hot-rod racer, Gilbert the Great. But when a terrible accident sees him go from hero to zero, Frank and Gilbert are left with nothing—and in the grips of a wicked crime boss and his henchmen. After Gilbert is thrown in prison, only Frank can come to his rescue. . .

La Guerra del Pacífico es retratada a través de este atractivo comic, cuyas ilustraciones enmarcan una de las batallas más importantes de la Guerra del Pacífico.
Este es el Tomo 2 sobre la Historia de La Guerra del Pacífico.
"Existe en la corta, pero apasionante historia de nuestro país, solo una época en que se unieron todos nuestros compatriotas en post de un objetivo.
No importaba si se era peón, agricultor, gañán, profesor, empresario, policía, carpintero o inclusive político, lo que importaba era salir en defensa de nuestra Patria y bandera, llenando todos estos los cuarteles para ingresar al Ejército y Armada, elevando el contingente de soldados desde 2700 hasta más de 82.000 chilenos, naciendo así, lo que podríamos llamar La Nación en Armas.
Las mujeres tampoco estuvieron ajenas a este patriotismo y un puñado de ellas se enrolaron en algunos batallones marchando palmo a palmo con los hombres. También cientos de ellas acompañaron en campamentos cercanos a sus hijos, padres, hermanos y esposos, dándoles el apoyo familiar y siguiéndolos en cada momento.
Por lo mismo, la Guerra del Pacífico es hoy, y lo será siempre, donde nos encontraremos como compatriotas, recordando el ejemplo de Prat y la tripulación de la Esmeralda, quienes nos legaron el sacrificio y la gloria; la intrepidez de Condell quien nos dio la victoria.
Angamos nos entregó el triunfo definitivo en el mar, con la captura del Huáscar, gracias a la astucia de Latorre y planificación del ministro Rafael Sotomayor, permitiendo a nuestras tropas comenzar las campañas terrestres sobre territorio peruano.
El desembarco en Pisagua marca el inicio de aquellas y la leyenda del Atacama. Agua
Santa, dio a la caballería su fama de bravos y el rigor de un chivateo que resuena hasta hoy.
San Francisco nos mostró la valentía y sacrificio del artillero, más el arrojo del Atacama y Coquimbo. Tarapacá nos hizo ver que inclusive en la derrota, nuestros hombres y mujeres tras el gran Eleuterio Ramírez y su segundo Vivar...preferían morir que rendirse.
Luego vienen los triunfos comandados por un líder como Baquedano en Los Angeles, Tacna. En Arica, Lagos planifica un ataque feroz, conquistando para Chile, el Morro en menos de una hora, con el empuje de los infantes del 3° y 4° de Línea.
El empuje y la fuerza de unidades de Línea y cívicas, en las victorias en Chorrillos y Miraflores, luego de una valerosa defensa adversaria, dan para Chile la conquista de la capital peruana.
Tras el retorno de los inmortales, a inicios de 1881, y cuando muchos en Chile daban por terminado el conflicto, miles de compatriotas combatían aún, muchas veces sin el apoyo del Estado, pero convencidos que sus servicios y sus vidas eran necesarias por la Patria.
La Concepción fue testigo del martirio de Carrera Pinto y sus 76 compañeros, quienes prefirieron morir antes de ver tomada nuestra hermosa bandera de la estrella solitaria, marcando nuevamente el ejemplo que debían seguir en cada batalla. Lo siguieron decenas de acciones en la sierra peruana, donde fueron atacados una y otra vez por fuerzas del ejército peruano, de guerrillas, montoneras indígenas y por el enemigo silencioso y más terrible que debieron enfrentar, las enfermedades, pestes, el frío y el hambre.
Marchas y contra marchas en plena cordillera, coronaron para las glorias de Chile en 1883, cuando las tropas de Gorostiaga vencen definitivamente a las del héroe peruano Cáceres, sellando con una carga de caballería implacable el triunfo definitivo para Chile.
Terminado el conflicto en 1884, regresan a sus hogares los valientes chilenos, que dejan de ser soldados para volver algunos a enseñar en las aulas, a curar personas, a trabajar la tierra y tantas labores más, que habían dejado en un momento para ir a defender a Chile, y que, tras cumplir con su misión, retomaron para aportar a la Patria ahora en la paz.
La Guerra del Pacífico, marca el orgullo de ser chilenos, la unión de un país y la parte
Gloria a los veteranos de la Guerra del Pacífico ayer, hoy y siempre.
Un hombre solo muere cuando se le olvida..."

Las hazañas del valeroso marinero Arturo Prat Chacón son retratadas a través de este hermoso comic, cuyas ilustraciones enmarcan una de las batallas más importantes de la Guerra del Pacífico.
"Sin duda, uno de los procesos históricos que más ha fascinado a los estudiodos de la historia nacional es el de la Guerra del Pacífico. Sus causas, sus batallas y sus protagonistas siguen llenando las páginas de libros, los que se publican cada año. Nos siguen fascinando las hazañas, el sacrificio y la lucha contra la adversidad. Y con razón, porque una sociedad que olvida y denosta a sus héroes patrios, tiene por delante un futuro oscuro.
Civilizaciones de la Antigüedad, como es el caso los griegos o de Roma, entendieron, quizás espontáneamente, la necesidad de mantener viva la llama de sus héroes. ¿Habrían logrado los griegos del siglo V poder resistir y vencer la invasión Persa sin la conciencia de un pasado glorioso que remontaban a la Guerra de Troya? ¿Habrían podido los romanos dominar el Mediterráneo sin el ejemplo republicano de Horacio, Cincinato y Escipión? Ambas naciones supieron sobreponerse y dejarnos su legado cultural. Los pueblos, como las personas, no solo necesitan de buen juicio para progresar; hace falta un elemento inspiracional que fomente la unidad y el esfuerzo por el bien común.
Arturo Prat Chacón nació en una hacienda, hacia 1848, en la actual región de Nuble, provincia de Itata, cuando la república chilena aún estaba en construcción. Posteriormente, se muda a Santiago y a los 10 años ingresa a la Escuela Naval, en Valparaíso, en donde forma lazos de amistad en el "Curso de los Héroes", , nombre que denomina a su generación, puesto que todos sus
integrantes tendrían una destacada participación en la Guerra del Pacífico.
Se suele recordar a Arturo Prat por el combate naval de 1879, pero existen muchos
Iquique no son más que el cierre de una vida entregada al deo O Higgins en 1868; su matrimonio con el gran amor de su vida, Carmela Carvajal en 1873 y la trágica muerte de su hija al año siguiente; su cercanía con la corbeta Esmeralda, donde incluso estudia para ser abogado, lo que logra en 1876 en la Universidad de Chile; su docencia, tanto en la Escuela Naval, preparando futuros oficiales, y en sus clases gratuitas para trabajadores en la Escuela Benjamín Franklyn;
su misión confidencial en Montevideo en 1878; o, el mismo bloqueo de Iquique en
1879. Todo esto es la antesala al 21 de mayo, momento donde su actuar no hace más que reflejar una actitud de sacrificio y honor que siempre caracterizo a Arturo.
Hoy, habiéndose cumplido casi 150 años del Combate Naval de lquique, y estando Chile en un momento de trascendencia histórica, cabe la pregunta sobre qué rescatar de nuestro patrimonio histórico para fomentarlo en nuestros jóvenes. La respuesta es clara: el ejemplo de Prat esta más atente que nunca, y sus ideales de entrega, valor y sacrificio son claves para la construcción de Chile, Por algo, está la famosa frase de Gabriela Mistral: "Es hermosa nuestra historia, y para dar en una narración a nuestros hijos la llamarada del heroísmo, no necesitamos recurrir ni a Grecia, ni Roma, si Prat fue toda Esparta".
