My Letter to the World and Other Poems

A charming and funny story about navigating new places and friendships. Perfect for fans of Uni the Unicorn and Sparky. Colette is exploring her new neighborhood and wants to make friends. But when she encounters someone her age she's never met before, she doesn't know what to say--so she hastily invents a lost pet! Things spiral a bit out of control as a neighborhood-wide search party is assembled and Colette makes her pet bird more amazing with each telling. Will the neighborhood kids catch on to her ever-growing fib? This charming story both clearly identifies the struggle of navigating a different experience and demonstrates to kids a lovely and welcoming way to treat someone new in their community.

Colette's Lost Pet

Albert just wants to read his book in peace . . . why won't his friends give him some quiet? A delightful picture book about finding alone time from an internationally acclaimed illustrator. There are so many distractions in Albert's Mile End neighborhood, what's a book-loving introvert to do? Desperate for a quiet place to read, Albert storms out to the alley behind his house where his friends and neighbors often meet to play. Lucky him -- not only is no one around today, but he finds an old painting of a beach scene that someone's left for the trash. The painting sparks Albert's imagination, spurring him on a zen-like quest for a quiet reading break on a sunset beach, a moment to unplug and find peace. And he almost does too, except for those meddling Mile End kids . . . who just want to have some fun, as LOUDLY as possible. Will Albert ever find a moment of quiet to enjoy his book? Or could his friends be looking for a book break of their own? Readers will love this adorably relatable story of a quiet kid, his big imagination and bringing friends together through the magic of reading.

Helene is not free to hide from the taunts of her former friends in the corridors at school. She can't be invisible in the playground or in the stairways leading to art class. Insults are even scribbled on the walls of the toilet cubicles. When Helene's heart hammers in her chest as Genevieve snickers at the back of the bus, inventing nasty things to say about her, Helene dives into the pages of her book, 'Jane Eyre' by Charlotte Bronte. And, in the solace she finds there, Helene's own world becomes a little brighter. But how will the story end?

Colette can't find something to talk about with the new kids in the neighborhood...so she invents a pet! Her fib quickly escalates, and suddenly her parakeet is a larger-than-life world-traveler named Marie Antoinette. Have her new friends figured out her secret? What will they do? This charming story both clearly identifies the struggle of navigating a different experience, and demonstrates to kids a lovely and welcoming way to treat someone new in their community.

The NATO phonetic alphabet, or more accurately, the International Radiotelephany Spelling Alphabet is used by various emergency services ...as a way to communicate clearly and precisely in urgent situations.

"Helene vorrebbe nascondersi da tutto e da tutti: dal mondo grigio che la circonda, dalle angherie dei bulli della scuola, dalla prova costume. Il suo unico rifugio è un libro, Jane Eyre, ed è solo nelle pagine del suo romanzo preferito che il mondo si colora di pace e poesia. Sarà invece la temuta gita di classe a riservare incontri inaspettati e una grande, semplice scoperta: non si è mai davvero soli. Attraverso parole semplici e potenti, immagini affascinanti e un tocco di ironia, un romanzo grafico che parla una lingua universale: quella di chi non ha mai smesso di aspettare il proprio incontro speciale."--
