Sinossi

The Illustrated Alphabet of Birds is a visually stunning book that combines ornithology and artistry in a unique way. The book showcases beautifully detailed illustrations of birds from around the world, each corresponding to a different letter of the alphabet. This book not only serves as an educational tool for young readers to learn their ABCs but also as a work of art for bird enthusiasts. The illustrations are intricate and lifelike, capturing the beauty and diversity of avian species. The literary style is simple yet informative, making it accessible to a wide audience. The Illustrated Alphabet of Birds stands out as a creative and educational work that bridges the gap between science and art. The identity of the author, simply listed as 'Unknown,' adds an air of mystery to the book. The motivation behind creating such a beautifully illustrated alphabet book remains a mystery, leaving readers to ponder the origins and intentions of the enigmatic author. Despite the lack of information about the author, The Illustrated Alphabet of Birds speaks volumes through its intricate illustrations and thoughtful design. I highly recommend The Illustrated Alphabet of Birds to anyone interested in birds, art, or literature. This book is a true gem that combines education and aesthetic pleasure in a delightful way.

Anacaona Golden Flower

Edwige Danticat

The New York Times–bestselling author and National Book Award finalist delivers a powerful Royal Diaries volume with the story of Haiti’s heroic queen. 
 
With her signature narrative grace, Edwidge Danticat brings Haiti’s beautiful queen Anacaona to life. Queen Anacaona was the wife of one of her island’s rulers, and a composer of songs and poems, making her popular among her people. Haiti was relatively quiet until the Spanish conquistadors discovered the island and began to settle there in 1492.The Spaniards treated the natives very cruelly, and when the natives revolted, the Spanish governor of Haiti ordered the arrests of several native nobles, including Anacaona, who was eventually captured and executed, to the horror of her people. 
 
“A gripping story that shows European invasion from a native Caribbean viewpoint . . . readers will connect with Danticat’s immediate, poetic language, Anacaona’s finely drawn growing pains, and the powerful, graphic story that adds a vital perspective to the literature about Columbus and European expansion in the Americas.” —Booklist 
 
“Explores the life of a proud, young Taíno woman as she grows into rulership, love, and motherhood . . . The arrival of Columbus’s explorers marks a major turning point in the novel, and Danticat shifts from a languid, poetic style to a tense, high gear that makes it difficult to put the book down.” —Historical Novel Society
