Abra Cadabra
Patas De Cabra
by Alejandrina Drew 
Illustrated by Mauricio Mora
A Spanish/English Story for Young Readers
 

This is the story of one boy’s passage from childhood to adolescence. In a remote sierran mountain village called San Melitón, ten-year-old Juan is already a talented potter and sculptor. When he is given the opportunity to deliver the invitation to his community’s fiesta to the neighboring village of San Marcos, he is anxious to take on the challenge. However, he discovers the journey to be more difficult than he anticipated, as he and his traveling companion and pet, Pancha the goat, are faced with a steep, strenuous climb, harsh weather conditions, and a confrontation with a crazy mountain hermit.

LONG BEFORE THE PILGRAMS
The First Thanksgiving, El Paso del Norte, 1598 
By Bill O'Neal
Spanish Translation by Lynn O’Neal Martinez


The first Thanksgiving celebrated in America was in 1621 by the Pilgrims—or was it? In this illustrated chapter book, author Bill O’Neal sets the record straight. In 1598, more than twenty years before the Pilgrims’ feast, Spanish colonists shared a celebration with Native Americans to show their thankfulness for a new homeland, Hispanic Texas. Spanish translation, written by Lynn O’Neal Martinez, accompanies text in this bilingual reader.
