  “A work of art. In each of the pages, you will feel the flow of a powerful energy which will murmur to each of your cells that it is time to come out of hiding, to open the windows, to breathe freely, to dress colorfully… to fly.”—Laura Esquivel, author of Like Water for Chocolate 
  A fable for all ages about a Mexican-American girl who transforms into a monarch butterfly and undertakes the great migration to Mexico, Monarca braids together the values of heritage, ecology, and personal transformation. 
  On her thirteenth birthday, Inés receives a mysterious necklace from her abuela in Mexico that turns her into a monarch butterfly—the fulfilment of a prophecy linking Inés’ destiny to her family’s legacy and the butterflies’ survival. 
  The adventure continues as Inés joins the monarchs on their long journey south to the butterfly sanctuary in Mexico—an odyssey that has become increasingly perilous due to human activity. Together, the swarm travels from the northeast to the swamps of Louisiana to the pine-filled mountain tops of the western Sierra Madre, finally alighting at the Sierra Chincua sanctuary. On this wondrous journey in the vein of Jonathan Livingston Seagull and The Little Prince, Inés discovers the connections between all living beings, and the urgent need to protect the monarchs' migration and habitats.  
  Divided into four chapters to mirror the four stages in a monarch’s life—egg, larva, pupa and butterfly—Monarca blends Mexican folklore, environmentalism, and magical realism in an enchanting novella. This book will inspire readers to protect and cherish the sacred natural world around them.

  *When a wily wizard is on the loose, how far would you go to stop him?* 
  Good hearted Alex and her friend adventure-loving Steve are at it again, embarking on new and exciting exploits. The adventure begins when Steve asks Alex to check out his new, exciting railway that, once finished, *will take you anywhere you could want to go.* The railway is fun...until they wound up in the dessert getting *chased by spiders and pricked by cacti!* They also happen upon an old temple, with a sign, warning intruders to stay out. 
  After deciding the sign must be ancient, the duo hops down into the tower to explore various treasure traps that are down there. Suddenly – BOOM – a TNT trap has been set, leaving Alex and Steve running for their lives. 
  To Alex’s dismay, Steve has been off in the dessert again, scoping out the old temple. He sees a *mysterious stranger* in a robe leave the temple, making sure that nobody could see him in his travels. Well Steve saw him, and has a bone to pick with him if he were the one who set the trap. 
  The only problem is, Steve found potion bottles in the temple after the stranger left, confirming he is a wizard. And wizards can be dangerous. Will Steve convince Alex to take one last trip to the dessert to confront this Wizard? Will they stay safe? Time will tell when you read “Wacky Wizard” 
  A tale with too many twists and turns to count, “Wacky Wizard” will have any young reader captivated – even the ones that don’t like to read.
