The mountains protect it from the winds, the mighty river waters the willows and the humans communicate with the birds to help each other.

My name is Jorge Oramas and I am known as the painter of light. My life was marked by the imprint of illness and poverty. However, despite all the darkness of my life, my work exudes luminosity and joy. In this book, I invite you to know my story: a story marked by adversity, but also by beauty.

Bestseller No. 1 in Germany 2021 Dora is living the millennial dream of the pandemic: she has moved to the country with her dog to escape confinement and perhaps find a way out of the alienations of the big city. But the small town of Bracken is not as idyllic as she thought. Her plot is not suitable for cultivation, the transport system does not work and, furthermore, behind the wall of her garden, a neighbor peeks out who, with his shaved head and far-right slogans, seems to fit all the stereotypes. What is Dora looking for in the middle of nowhere? Perhaps a radical change in her life, or distance from Robert, her boyfriend, increasingly oblivious to her in her obstinate activism. As she reflects on her motives and desires, things happen that she couldn't have foreseen: people who don't fit any mold, opinions that drastically challenge her ideas, and events of hers that revolutionize her inner life. In this German best seller, Juli Zeh manages to take an X-ray of our times. A complex and polarized world that yearns for genuine connections, and that forces us to face our weaknesses and fears, all those contradictions that come to light when we dare to be humans.

Rosa returns to the Canary Islands in search of something. What? She doesn't know. She is as lost as the rest of her family, the once influential and conservative Bernadotte lineage. Perhaps she can find answers from her grandfather Julio, who, in his nearly one hundred years of life, has witnessed the political history of the island and the mark it has left on all those around him. With a brilliant and strange literary style, the author of Archipiélago retraces Julio's life, that of the Baute and Bernadotte families, but also that of those who had no name: the small great stories of those who have not gone down in history.

It all started in 1979, when one of the usual floods of the Brahmaputra River, one of the longest in Asia, killed hundreds of snakes. Jadav, who was a child at the time, understood that the animals died because they had no shade to shelter in. He decided to fix this. Seed by seed he transplanted trees from nearby areas. Despite doubt from those around him, he managed to create a forest of almost six hundred hectares where birds, deer, rhinos, and elephants now live. A book about plants, animals, humans, and the importance of all working together to conserve our wonderful planet.

Lucy and Jake live in a house next to a field where the sun burns like a ball of fire. She works from home, adapting where she has gotten her routine to the children and to the house itself, which comforts her like a sly old friend. She until, one day, she receives a call from a stranger with a devastating message: her wife is having an affair with Lucy's husband, and she wants her to know about it. A revelation that inevitably has consequences. Lucy and Jake decide to stay together, with a strange modified condition to maintain some balance and thus save their marriage: she will hurt him three times. Jake won't know when, or how. As the pair undergo a delicate game of crime and punishment, Lucy herself begins to change, surrendering to a transformation of mind and body from which there is no return.

Inventario de sitios perdidos y amigos muertos antes de tiempo, Barcelona fantasma constituye el retrato fragmentario de una ciudad que fue y que ya no es. A veces melancâolico, a menudo irâonico y casi nunca moralista -aunque sâi teänido de un cierto fatalismo amable-, Ramâon de Espaäna reconstruye la Barcelona underground de los setenta y ochenta a travâes de una serie de lugares y personas que ya no estâan a la vista; cadâaveres gloriosos que alguna vez habitaron y adornaron la ciudad de literatura, cine, mâusica y, por quâe no, de dipsomanâia en los mâas famosos tugurios de la âepoca. En la pelâicula de Woody Allen Otra mujer, Gena Rowlands se preguntaba si un recuerdo es algo que se tiene o algo que se ha perdido. Algo parecido se plantea De Espaäna en este centenar de crâonicas que, como escribe Javier Cercas, bien pueden leerse como sobre su autor, evocando sus vivencias en la ciudad que lo vio nacer y que, ahora, solo existe en su memoria.

Luz Illuminates Dyslexia At a very young age, Luz Rello realized that she was not learning at the same pace as her classmates. Something prevented her from understanding what the teacher was writing on cards, and her friends could read easily. Over time, Luz realized that she was dyslexic. But she did not give up, she learned to cope with these difficulties and ended up becoming an expert in linguistics. As an adult, as a researcher, Luz has managed to develop a test to detect the risk of dyslexia in less than fifteen minutes, which is a true global milestone in the treatment of one of the most common obstacles to children's learning. The story of Luz is that of someone who, from a very young age, realized that there were things around her that did not work well, and that maybe she could do something in order to change them. So she thought of a solution, she looked for teammates to carry it out and started a very important project to contribute to a better world.

El secreto de la vida Rosalind Franklin fue una de las químicas más influyentes del siglo XX. Experta en el uso de los rayos X, desveló uno de los enigmas mejor guardados de la naturaleza: la estructura del ADN, la molécula que se encarga de que todos, humanos, animales, plantas y resto de organismos, nos parezcamos a nuestros progenitores. A pesar de no haber obtenido apenas reconocimiento, la vida de Rosalind Franklin es un ejemplo de superación y de trabajo, al haber contribuido al descubrimiento del secreto de la vida. Tanto el registro de la narración como el estilo de las imágenes están adecuados a escolares con una franja de edad entre 8 y 11 años. El texto y las ilustraciones se aseguran de tratar temas didácticos transversales a los ámbitos de actividad del personaje, en especial aquellos relativos al mundo de la ciencia y la biología, de cara tanto a la lectura en familia como al uso en centros escolares y al refuerzo al programa educativo. Las páginas finales del libro contienen una biografía resumida del personaje y una cronología que lo enmarca en la evolución de su disciplina, entre otros personajes destacados. GENIOS DE LA CIENCIA Con la colección Infantil, desde Vegueta queremos realizar nuestra particular aportación al proyecto universal más apasionante que existe, el de la educación infantil y juvenil. Como una varita mágica, la educación tiene el poder de iluminar sombras y hacer prevalecer la razón, los principios y la solidaridad, impulsando la prosperidad. Genios de la Ciencia, nuestra serie de biografías de científicos e inventores, pretende aproximar a los niños a aquellos grandes personajes cuyo estudio, disciplina y conocimiento han contribuido al desarrollo y la calidad de vida de nuestra sociedad. Nuestras publicaciones desean apoyar la labor de creadores, pedagogos y maestros, sin cuyo esfuerzo y generosidad sería imposible el milagro de la transmisión del saber que, como el fuego de una antorcha, debe progresar y acrecentarse cada vez que pasa de una generación a la siguiente. Sin la encomiable entrega de estos profesionales y sin la curiosidad innata de nuestros mayores cómplices --todos los niños y niñas a los que ha picado alguna vez el chinche prodigioso de la lectura--, muy poco de lo que hacemos tendría sentido. The secret of life Rosalind Franklin was one of the most influential chemists of the 20th century. An expert in the use of X-rays, she unveiled one of Nature's best kept enigmas: the structure of DNA, the molecule that ensures that all of us, humans, animals, plants and other organisms, look like our progenitors. Rosalind Franklin's life is an example of improvement and work, having contributed to the discovery of the secret of life. Both the register of the narrative and the style of the images are appropriate for schoolchildren between 8 and 11 years old. The text and the images make sure to deal with pedagogical threads that traverse the characters' scope of activity, both for family readings at home and at school, supporting the educational program. Additionally, throughout the narrative the reader will find all the information necessary to appropriately situate the figure in a socio-historical context.

This volume tells the story of Jacques Cousteau, the legendary explorer who discovered the wonders of the underwater world, so close to our lives up to then, and yet so unknown. This exciting epic is narrated by Philippe, Commander Cousteau's younger son, and in it we will read about his father's inventions and exciting expeditions aboard the Calypso. We will also learn about the majestic creatures he came to meet in his travels and the dangers these creatures fase on account of the human species' invasive and destructive habits. The author visited Jan Cousteau, Cousteau's daughter-in-law and widow of his son Philippe, the main character of the book. The author met with her in Washington. Jan excitedly handed over to us for publication the letter she had received from Philippe when he was on an expedition. In addition to Philippe's letter, this title includes a postcard and a second letter simulating Philippe's correspondence with his mother, when he was at boarding school and his parents were travelling around the world on Calypso.
