Pura Belpre honor recipient, Joe Cepeda, brings magical realism for the beginning reader

Two brothers are asleep in their bed when a pinwheel flies through the window and into the hand of the younger boy. He stands in front of the window, and soon he's flying through the sky where he sees a chicken, a sheep, a cow and a pig. The wind carries the animals back to their farm and the boy back to his home, where he passes the pinwheel along to his brother.

The very newest readers will enjoy the fun fantasy and energetic artwork as they read this...

The joys of giving and receiving are celebrated in this easy-to-read story about a cat who seeks shelter on a snowy day.

Shivering, Cat jumps into the basement window of a small apartment building. As Cat makes his way up to a top-floor garret, Dog gives Cat a book, Rabbit gives him a plant, Bird gives him a painting, and Elephant gives him a hot drink. Cat is happy Everyone is happy

Cutaway views of the building with each character cozy in his apartment and constructively occupied--reading, painting, tending plants, and playing a piano--will fascinate new readers.
