Nathan is flung into an unexpected adventure when he meets up with the mysterious Haven and crosses path with the volken chasing after him. This was a fun read. I wish it was a bit more developed, but I loved the characters and how the story unfolds. #Nonbinary #Hispanic #Fantasy #Comics

This whole book can be used to teach students to love who they are and where they come from. This can be turned into several activities such as show-in-tell, writing a personal narrative, or bringing in a family member to discuss interesting family history.

Published 2018
This is a great story about a girl with a really long name who learns the history of where it comes from. At first, Alma is embarrassed and confused about her long, complicated name. But after she learns about all of the awesome people who are honored in it, she becomes proud of her name. The message of appreciating and being knowledgeable about your own identity is told in a child friendly way.
