A Minnow's Dream

Pasquale De Marco

Sinossi

In the vast expanse of the ocean, where dreams take shape and destinies unfold, there lived a small minnow named Finn. Unlike his fellow minnows, Finn harbored an extraordinary aspiration—to become a sardine.

Finn's dream was met with disbelief and mockery from his community. They insisted that a minnow could never become a sardine, that it was against the natural order of things. But Finn refused to be discouraged. Fueled by unwavering determination, he embarked on a perilous journey to achieve his seemingly impossible goal.

Along the way, Finn encountered treacherous currents, formidable predators, and countless obstacles. Yet, he persevered, drawing strength from his unwavering resolve and the newfound friends he made along the way. From wise old sea turtles to playful dolphins, Finn discovered the true meaning of friendship and the power of unity.

As Finn journeyed farther from his home, he discovered a hidden world teeming with wonder and beauty. He learned from ancient creatures who shared their wisdom and taught him valuable lessons about life and the ocean. He discovered the importance of embracing change, the beauty of diversity, and the strength that lies within.

Through his extraordinary journey, Finn realized that his dream was not just about becoming a sardine. It was about breaking free from limitations, embracing his true potential, and living a life filled with purpose and adventure.

Join Finn on his awe-inspiring odyssey as he navigates the vast ocean, overcomes seemingly insurmountable challenges, and ultimately discovers the true meaning of his existence. "A Minnow's Dream" is a captivating tale of courage, determination, and the extraordinary power of belief.

Masters of Silence

Kathy Kacer

Silence can be powerful.
		 
Kathy Kacer’s second book in her middle grade series about heroic rescues during WWII tells the tale of siblings Helen and Henry, and history’s most famous mime. Desperate to save them from the Nazis, Henry and Helen’s mother makes the harrowing decision to take her children from their home in 1940s Germany and leave them in the care of strangers in France. The brother and sister must hide their Jewish identity to pass for orphans being fostered at a convent in the foreign land. Visits from a local mime become the children’s one source of joy, especially for Henry, whose traumatic experience has left him a selective mute. When an informer gives them up, the children are forced to flee yet again from the Nazis, but this time the local mime—a not yet famous Marcel Marceau—risks everything to try to save the children.
		 
Masters of Silence shows award-winning author Kathy Kacer at the top of her craft, bringing to light the little-known story of Marceau’s heroic work for the French Resistance. Marceau would go on to save hundreds of children from Nazi concentration camps and death during WWII. In characteristic Kacer style, Masters of Silence is dramatic and engaging, and highlights the courage of both those rescuing and the rescued themselves. Wenting Li’s chapter heading illustrations and evocative covers provide the perfect visuals for the series.
