Ganador del I Premio Los Odres de poesía, el cubano Alexis Díaz-Pimienta nos muestra un verdadero festín poético de lenguajes y metros. Reflexión sentimental sobre la identidad, las caretas, el fingimiento. Todo rostro es, en esencia, un disfraz que nos protege de los otros y de nosotros mismos.

Small and large, short and tall, little and big, these are all words that help us describe size. This math concepts volume doesn't just "tell"; it shows early learners the difference between concepts, introduces them to synonyms, and helps them learn to sort a group according to size. Classification is an important concept for the early elementary mathematics student, but the text and photographs in this book, including dogs, fish, and birds, make it fun!

When a bird flies by a window or a car zooms by on the highway, we often wonder how fast the two objects traveled. This book explains the concept of speed to readers while showing them accessible ways to measure it for themselves. Learning the amount of distance traveled, and how quickly that distance was covered, is a great way to implement a variety of STEM topics while practicing this essential mathematical skill.
