From the acclaimed author of Barefoot Dreams of Petra Luna, comes the compelling story of one girl’s quest for a better life in a new country. Petra Luna escaped the terror of the Mexican Revolution to come to America. Now that they are safe, Petra and her family can begin again in this country that promises so much. Still, twelve-year-old Petra knows that her abuelita, little sister, and baby brother depend on her to survive. She leads her family from a smallpox stricken refugee camp on the Texas border to the buzzing city of San Antonio, where they work hard to build a new life. And for the first time ever, Petra has a chance to learn to read and write. Yet Petra also sees in America attitudes she thought she’d left behind on the other side of the Río Grande—people who look down on her mestizo skin and bare feet, who think someone like her doesn’t deserve more from life. Petra wants more. Isn’t that what the Revolution is about? Her strength and courage will be tested like never before as she fights for herself, her family, and her dreams.Zum Buch

THE ENCHANTED GROVE OF LUMINA Book 3 of 6 The Veil of Eternis – Titania & Oberon restore Balance. Following on from Book 2– The Shadow of Noctis this story is summarized as follows: In the mystical grove of Lumina, guardian Lyra discovers the Veil—a barrier between life and death—is breaking, threatening both realms. Guided by Eldrin, an ancient tree spirit, and Kael, a former Veil guardian, Lyra learns the Veil’s fragility stems from a betrayer’s past attempt to control eternity. Venturing into the surreal realm of Eternis, Lyra confronts the betrayer’s spirit, who reveals a primordial entity of chaos exploiting the Veil’s weakness. With the help of fairy rulers Titania and Oberon, Lyra combines the Essences of Lumina and Eternis to restore the Veil, though it creates a new, fluid balance between life and death. The betrayer’s spirit finds peace, and Lyra, Finn, and Kael become guardians of the renewed grove. A starlit sapling grows, symbolizing hope and unity, as Titania and Oberon’s laughter echoes, celebrating the harmony of light and darkness. This is the third of six audiobooks in the series, the others will become available in the very near future and I do hope you enjoy this third instalment, and it's only $3, all subsequent will remain at that price as I would not like price to be a barrier to your enjoyment. I have worked very hard and meticulously to provide you with an enjoyable experience, the initial opening credit music which does run to approximately 2 minutes sets the scene, so to speak, harp, violin, glockenspiel in a classical but uplifting form. The closing music ends the tale on a more restrained note and at about 2 minutes and the same musical instruments but more dreamy and ethereal effect. The story itself runs to about 15 minutes is is narrated in my own voice. I do hope you and your family, if applicable, enjoy this audiobook.Zum Buch
