Book Description
A 2019 Caldecott Honor Book What’s in a name? For one little girl, her very long name tells the vibrant story of where she came from — and who she may one day be. If you ask her, Alma Sofia Esperanza José Pura Candela has way too many names: six! How did such a small person wind up with such a large name? Alma turns to Daddy for an answer and learns of Sofia, the grandmother who loved books and flowers; Esperanza, the great-grandmother who longed to travel; José, the grandfather who was an artist; and other namesakes, too. As she hears the story of her name, Alma starts to think it might be a perfect fit after all — and realizes that she will one day have her own story to tell. In her author-illustrator debut, Juana Martinez-Neal opens a treasure box of discovery for children who may be curious about their own origin stories or names.

Pages : 101
Book Description
That evening, an ominous weather storm produced an unexpected amount of rain. A torrential downpour of water flooded the roads, and caused them to be extremely slippery! Suddenly, another car appeared from out of nowhere. It came up quickly and tailgated Johns car. Dangerously swerving back and forth, the driver attempted to pass on our narrow, two-lane road. Without warning, this driver stepped on his gas, and moved into the opposing lane to race past Johns car. He nearly whipped around; but, instead, slid on the wet pavement, and slammed into the side of Johns car.The impact launched each vehicle into mid-air flight. After both cars went soaring, they bounced back onto the road and skidded out of control. Each car hydroplaned over the slick glassy surface and ended up on opposite sides of the dark wet road. With broken ribs and a bloody face, the driver stumbled out of his car. He fell onto the side of the road, and tried to see what resulted from the accident he had caused. The traumatized man was dreadfully injured, but he would be all right. What about John? you ask.
