Book Description
Can you imagine a chair scolding you for sitting on it too hard? Or, your pillow telling you to lay your head somewhere else? I don't know if I would laugh or cry! That's the sort of excitement the folks in this story had to deal with. A folktale from Ghana, written and narrated by A. Sakyiama *** This is an audio-ebook. In addition to text, it includes the author-narrated audio of the story. It's a fun format that allows you to enjoy books by reading, listening, or reading and listening at the same time. This is a wonderful, low-stress way to help struggling readers find pleasure in reading. Listening makes the difference. Kids see the words highlighted on the page and at the same time, are able to hear how the words should be read. This way, they build reading skills and a richer vocabulary. Also, it's just plain fun sometimes to relax and have someone else read to you. 🙂

Book Description
Even frustrated grammarians will giggle at the who’s-on-first routine that begins with a donkey’s excited announcement, “I yam a donkey!” Unfortunately the donkey’s audience happens to be a yam, and one who is particular about sloppy pronunciation and poor grammar. An escalating series of misunderstandings leaves the yam furious and the clueless donkey bewildered by the yam’s growing (and amusing) frustration. The yam finally gets his point across, but regrettably, he’s made the situation a little bit too clear . . . and the story ends with a dark and outrageously funny twist.

Book Description
Moving to America turns H&à's life inside out. For all the 10 years of her life, H&à has only known Saigon: the thrills of its markets, the joy of its traditions, the warmth of her friends close by, and the beauty of her very own papaya tree. But now the Vietnam War has reached her home. H&à and her family are forced to flee as Saigon falls, and they board a ship headed toward hope. In America, H&à discovers the foreign world of Alabama: the coldness of its strangers, the dullness of its food, the strange shape of its landscape, and the strength of her very own family. This is the moving story of one girl's year of change, dreams, grief, and healing as she journeys from one country to another, one life to the next.
