Un día nevado, una visita a la abuela, tiempo cocinando juntas y un espacio para pausar y descubrir el mundo a tu alrededor se reúnen en este libro perfecto para leerse y compartirse en un acogedor día de invierno.    Una mañana de invierno, Lina despierta al silencio. Es el sonido de la nieve —el tipo que se ve suave y brilla luminosa con el sol del invierno. Pero mientras Lina camina hacia la casa de su abuela para ayudarla a cocinar la receta familiar de warak enab, ella sigue escuchando.   Mientras Lina pasa hombres de nieve y cruza aceras congeladas, descubre diez maneras de poner atención a lo que de otra forma habría pasado desapercibido. Con ilustraciones maravillosas por Kenard Pak y la considerada representación de la vida de una familia árabenortemericana moderna por Cathy Camper, Diez maneras de escuchar la nieve es una exploración escalonada sobre contemplación, empatía, y sobre lo que descubrimos cuando el mundo guarda silencio.

Lupe Impala, El Chavo Flapjack, and Elirio Malaria love working with cars. You name it, they can fix it. But the team's favorite cars of all are lowriders-cars that hip and hop, dip and drop, go low and slow, bajito y suavecito . The stars align when a contest for the best car around offers a prize of a trunkful of cash-just what the team needs to open their own shop! ¡Ay chihuahua! What will it take to transform a junker into the best car in the universe?

With a glossary at the back to provide definitions for Spanish and science terms, this delightful book will educate and entertain in equal measure.
