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".

A founding father of the United States of America
An inventor who created bifocal glasses, a musical instrument, and an artificial “arm”
A scientist who discovered the nature of lightning

Ben Franklin was the scientist who, with the help of a kite, discovered that lightning is electricity. He was also a statesman, an inventor, a printer, and an author-a man of such amazingly varied talents that some people claimed he had magical powers! Full of all the details kids will want to know, the true story of Benjamin Franklin is by turns sad and funny, but always honest and awe-inspiring.

A team of scientists has sent a monkey into space! And good thing, too, because he's a mean, selfish, noisy, bullying little fur-bag.

Monkey decides this is a new world and claims it for his own. And his first decree is that all other animals should be banished! What follows is a series of hilarious, off-the-wall interactions between Monkey and the other forest animals.

His biggest problem is dealing with his new friend, Tyson--a six-foot-three, mentally challenged homeless kid who follows Percy everywhere, making it hard for Percy to have any "normal" friends.

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.

The slapstick shenanigans continue in Invasion of the Ufonuts, the hilarious second book in Laurie Keller's Adventures of Arnie the Doughnut series.

Arnie finds himself in trouble when his neighbor, Loretta Schmoretta, begins telling news reporters that she was the victim of an alien abduction. And not just any aliens—alien doughnuts from outer spastry, who will continue the abductions until people stop eating doughnuts! Although Arnie thinks this is a ridiculous story, he notices that everyone is treating him differently, as if he is an alien doughnut rather than just a doughnut-dog. And then Arnie gets abducted! Arnie must think fast in order to rescue his fellow doughnuts and the townspeople from the alien invaders.

A Christy Ottaviano Book

Praise for the Adventures of Arnie the Doughnut series (Bowling Alley Bandit, Invasion of the UFOnuts, and The Spinny Icky Showdown):

“A bowling tournament gives the rolling raconteur introduced in the 2003 picture book Arnie the Doughnut fresh scope for wisecracks and wild misadventures. . . . Like triumphant Mr. Bing, Keller walks off with a ‘Stiffy Stu McShiny' award for this yummy chapter-book series opener.” —Kirkus Reviews, starred review, for Bowling Alley Bandit

“Keller shrewdly targets hesitant readers with an abundance of goofy comedy.” —Publishers Weekly, starred review, for Bowling Alley Bandit

“Should be a winner with reluctant readers who . . . are ready for a generous dose of extreme silliness.” -Childrens Literature for Invasion of the Ufonuts
