Summary

This book explores the private lives of five iconic yet often misunderstood animals: the bear, snake, rat, wolf, and turtle. While they carry symbolic weight in myths and stories, their real lives are filled with daily routines, social interactions, and subtle behaviors. From the bear’s sunlit naps and playful parenting to the snake’s silent shedding under rocks, and the rat’s tight-knit colony life, each creature’s world is rich with emotion and survival strategies. The wolf’s family bonds and the turtle’s enduring migrations reflect a deep intelligence and instinctive wisdom. Through these portraits, readers are invited to look beyond fear or folklore and see these animals as individuals navigating their environments with grace, resilience, and purpose. The stories illuminate how they communicate, raise young, find food, and endure challenges. These quiet revelations foster empathy and wonder, reminding us that every creature, no matter how feared or revered, lives a life shaped by instinct, struggle, and connection.

Welcome to Serenity, the town where everyone looks on the bright side—on purpose. To belong in this picture-perfect community, residents must agree to reject negativity by embracing optimism as a way of life. For twelve-year-old Mackenzie Werner, whose feelings manifest as a colorful haze around her body, Serenity promises an escape from bad feelings, mean comments, and the distress of her haze turning into a grumbly grapefruit smog.  
 
However, when a documentary filmmaker comes to town and starts asking questions, Mackenzie is overwhelmed by emotion and can’t hold her haze back—and it explodes onto the town. Now everyone in Serenity has their own haze, revealing their repressed feelings. As Mackenzie discovers the complexity of her emotions, she and her entire community must learn to reckon with the shocking true colors that now paint the town of Serenity.

"From Yuyi Morales, this Pura Belpré–winning companion to the award-winning Just a Minute is a beautiful alphabet picture book, featuring text in English and Spanish. 
It's Grandma Beetle's birthday, and Señor Calavera (a skeleton from the Day of the Dead) doesn't know what to bring to her party. ""Don't worry,"" says Zelmiro the Ghost. ""You surely must know, the best present to give a friend is the thing she would love the most."" So instead of choosing just one gift, Señor Calavera chooses: Un Acordeón: An accordion for her to dance to. Bigotes: A mustache because she had none. Cosquillas: Tickles to make her laugh. Un Chiflido: A whistle he trapped in a bag. And so on. . . . 
 
This companion to Yuyi Morales's Pura Belpré award-winning trickster tale, Just a Minute, is a stunning picture book that functions both as a Spanish alphabet book and a marvelous story."
