"¿Quién soy yo?" se pregunta Tiburoncito. Cuando su saco de huevos, llamado "monedero de sirena", se rompe perdiéndose en una tormenta, él se encuentra en un viaje a través de diferentes habitats oceánicos: bosques de algas marinas, los arrecifes de coral, y praderas de pastos marinos. Él aprende qué tipo de tiburón no es, pero no qué tipo es. Él necesita encontrar a la "sirena" para saber a dónde pertenece, pero el océano es grande y lleno de peligros. ¿Podrá averiguar quién es y qué es lo que puede hacer-a tiempo?
¡Imagina ver a cientos de animales de la misma especie en un mismo lugar a un mismo tiempo! Aquí en Norte América, muchos animales se agrupan en grandes masas en tiempos y lugares previsibles. No todas las migraciones están ligadas a cambios de fuentes de alimento - algunas están ligadas a los cambios de ciclos de vida. Ciertas aves, reptiles, mamíferos, anfibios, peces e inclusive insectos, emigran durante la primavera, el verano, el otoño o el invierno. Viaja junto con ellos mientras aprendes qué es lo que hace que estos animales estén Avanzando...de aquí para allá.
When Penny spots
a marble in Mrs. Goodwin's
front yard,
she picks it up,
puts it in her pocket,
and takes it home.
It's a beautiful marble-it's big, shiny, blue,
smooth, and fast,
and Penny loves it.
But does the marble
really belong to Penny?
What do you think will happen?
Young Daniel Arabus and his mother are slaves in the house of Captain Ivers of Stratford, Connecticut. By law they should be free, since Daniel's father fought in the Revolutionary army and earned enough in soldiers' notes to buy his family's freedom. But now Daniel's father is dead, and Mrs. Ivers has taken the notes from his mother. When Daniel bravely steals the notes back, a furious Captain Ivers forces him aboard a ship bound for the West Indies--and certain slavery. Even if Daniel can manage to jump ship in New York, will he be able to travel the long and dangerous road to freedom?
