Holes!

http://img2.imagesbn.com/p/9780786261901_p0_v1_s260x420.jpg


Hi kids, today  i have a suggestion for the most avid readers: Louis Sachar´s "Holes". This story has become a classic.
 Stanley Yelnats has to make a choice: go to prison or attend campr Green lake. He was born into a poor family and has never been to camp before so... but soon enough he will find out camp is not at all what he expected.
Oh! and here is the link to the author´s webpage. Check out what he had to say about this book.http://www.louissachar.com/HolesBook.htm

For the fans of "The one in the middle is the green kangaroo"

"The pain and the great one" is another book by Judy Blume you might fall in love with. It is the story of two sibblings that not always see eye to eye. This is what she had to say about the book:  http://www.judyblume.com/books/picture/pain.php

And here is a video version of the story. Enjoy!

Audioteca de la Ciudad de Buenos Aires


Acá les dejo un link muy interesante. La audioteca de  la ciudad de Buenos Aires cuenta con una gran variedad de cuentos de autores Argentinos, narados por ellos mismos. Son una joyita para aprovechar. Aquí el link: http://www.buenosaires.gob.ar/areas/com_social/audiovideoteca/literatura/chicos_es.php
Encontrarán relatos de Gustavo Roldán, Ema Wolf, Ana María Shua, María Elena Walsh, Liliana Bodoc, Luis María Pescetti entre otros.
Personalmente les recomiendo el relato de Graciela Cabal, parte de "Secretos de familia": http://www.buenosaires.gob.ar/areas/com_social/audiovideoteca/literatura/chicos_cabal_audio_mov_es.php


Más de Lucas Lenz.

Para todos los fanáticos de los policiales, en especial a los que ya conocen a De Santis y Lucas Lenz, les recomiendo la segunda aventura de este particular detective. No se trata de una novedad editorial sino de un clásico imperdible. La historia es un poco más compleja que la primera pero igual de atrapante. Déjense envolver por sus aventuras, cada vez más peligrosas.
