While artist Luz-Maria Lopez was growing up in Honduras, her grandmother would share stories about her Mayan ancestors, such as the legend of the finger people. The tale begins with the lonely gods in heaven. Though they created flowers and beasts to roam the forest, they lacked companionship. They created a man out of clay, but he melted. A man made of wood caught fire, and a man made of gold lacked an appreciation for nature's beauty.They decided that man must be composed from the gods. The gods cut their fingers from their hand, which fell to earth and transformed into the energetic finger people. The compassionate little people felt bad for the cold, gold man and offered him love and warmth. For this, the gods decreed that no rich man can enter the gates of heaven unless he treats others with love and kindness, just as the finger people showed kindness to the gold man.Told in both English and Spanish, this unique story is full of vibrant illustrations by Luz-Maria Lopez, which reflect traditional Mayan art.Show book

A gross and giggle-inducing take on the classic children’s song with “sly humor and a bit of the unexpected presented with bold art” (School Library Journal). There was an old lady who swallowed a fly . . . Young readers will love hearing about the fly and all the other creepy-crawly bugs the old lady gulps down in this fanciful feast. With a taste for slugs, the old lady enjoys a poached roach, a squirmy worm, a wiggly spider, and more during the course of the tale. And a surprise ending reveals that this isn’t just any old lady. Accompanied by Johnette Downing’s signature colorful collage illustrations, this good and gross tale pops off the page with its fun, musical language and whimsical look at the insect food chain. “Johnette Downing has done it again . . . Another entertaining read for young ones.” —Baton Rouge Advocate “As an enthusiast of fractured tales and a big fan of Johnette’s songs and stories, I give Johnette’s new book a big ten thumbs up. Her funny and surprising version gives a new twist to an old favorite. It is ‘kidtastic!’” —Ann L. Davis, head of children’s services, Napa City-County Library, Napa, CaliforniaShow book
