 | La Mariposa by Francisco Jimenez, Simon Silva
Young Francisco just moved to the United States from Mexico, and doesn`t speak any English. During his first year of school, he`s unable to understand the words that pour from his teacher`s lips. Confused and isolated, he finds comfort in a creature that lives in the classroom--a caterpillar kept in a jar. In order to understand how it transforms into a beautiful butterfly, with wings as smooth and soft as plush velvet, Francisco tries to study butterfly books. Soon, a metamorphosis takes place within Francisco, too. With lush color illustrations throughout. This book is based on the author`s experience as a little boy growing up in America.

 | Ill Wind by Barbara Rosenblat, Nevada Barr
Colorado's Mesa Verde National Park has honored the legacy of the vanished Anasazi civilization by its well-preserved cliff dwellings, where park ranger Anna Pigeon, separated from family and friends, finds solace in the quiet ruins. But the rugged beauty of the park is suddenly overshadowed when a fellow ranger is found dead, curled up in one of the ancient kivas with his hat and shoes by his side. Immersing herself in the investigation, Anna sorts through her shifting loyalties and struggles to honor the past as she faces forces, both seen and unseen, that threaten her career, and her very life.
