THE 500 HATS OF BARTHOLOMEW CUBBINS
As topical today as when it was first published in 1938, The 500 Hats of Bartholomew Cubbins is the story of a young boy (the same one featured in the Caldecott Honor Award-winner Bartholomew and the Oobleck) and his unjust treatment at the hands of a king. Written in unrhymed prose, The 500 Hats is one of Dr. Seuss’s earliest works, and while it may not be as well-known as his other stories, the book addresses subjects that we know the good doctor was passionate about throughout his life: the abuse of power (as in Yertle the Turtle and Horton Hears a Who); rivalry (as in The Sneetches); and of course, zany good humor (as in The Cat in the Hat and all the other books he wrote and illustrated)!

TEX PATTON Y LA ISLA DE PLASTICO
El mar está en peligro, y Tex Patton es el elegido para salvarlo. Adéntrate en esta trepidante novela repleta de aventuras, superpoderes y espectaculares criaturas marinas.
A sus trece años, Tex Patton parece un chico normal. Es cierto que, desde niño, es capaz de predecir las tormentas con asombrosa exactitud. O de saber dónde hay que cavar para encontrar un pozo subterráneo, pero jamás se hubiera imaginado el poder que se esconde en su interior y que, este verano, va aflorar con toda su intensidad.
La muerte de su padre en extrañas circunstancias y los experimentos previos a su fallecimiento han provocado una extraña mutación en su ADN capaz de convertirle en un ser anfibio que no solo puede sumergirse en lo más profundo del océano, comprender el lenguaje de las criaturas del mar o nadar a velocidades asombrosas, sino que podrá controlar la esencia misma del agua. El océano está en peligro, y él es el elegido para ganar la batalla contra el plástico.
Tex comenzará un viaje para tratar de descifrar su verdadera naturaleza, la especial relación que mantiene con el agua y cumplir la misión que le ha sido encomendada: hacer llegar a la humanidad un mensaje de advertencia y salvar el océano de la destrucción.
