Book Description
"Early one spring morning, a little seed woke up after her long winter sleep. She yawned and stretched. With a loud CRACK her hard brown jacket fell away. 'Oh!' said the surprised seed. The earth above felt warm." ... this was just the beginning of big changes to come. The colorful illustrations in this book are made by the author from dyed wool fibers, felted together to create a solid piece of "fabric." She employed a technique known as "dry," or "needle," felting, which requires a small hand tool called a felting needle with barbs along the shaft to catch the fibers as it pierces the surface of the wool and binds them together. Jan describes the experience as "painting with a needle." (Ages 3-5).

Book Description
**Four starred reviews!** A farm-working girl with big dreams meets activist Dolores Huerta and joins the 1965 protest for workers’ rights in this tender-hearted novel in verse, perfect for fans of Rita Williams-Garcia and Pam Muñoz Ryan. Lula Viramontes aches to one day become someone whom no one can ignore: a daring ringleader in a Mexican traveling circus. But between working the grape harvest in Delano, California, with her older siblings under dangerous conditions; taking care of her younger siblings and Mamá, who has mysteriously fallen ill; and doing everything she can to avoid Papá’s volatile temper, it’s hard to hold on to those dreams. Then she meets Dolores Huerta, Larry Itliong, and other labor rights activists and realizes she may need to raise her voice sooner rather than later: Farmworkers are striking for better treatment and wages, and whether Lula’s family joins them or not will determine their future.

Book Description
Seed, Soil, Sun. With these simple ingredients, nature creates our food. Once again, noted author Cris Peterson brings both wonder and clarity to the subject of agriculture, celebrating the cycle of growth, harvest, and renewal. Using the corn plant as an example, she takes the reader through the story of germination and growth of a tiny corn seed into a giant plant reaching high into the air, with roots extending over six feet into the ground. This American Farm Bureau Foundation's Agriculture Book of the Year also discusses the make-up of soil and the amazing creatures who live there—from microscopic one-celled bacteria to moles, amoebas, and earthworms. David Lundquist's stunning photographs bring an immediacy and vibrancy to the seemingly miraculous process.

Book Description
Conqueror of the Sun – Book 1 – Seed of an Orchid tells the story of Shawn Arc’s rise to power and formation of the IRF, or International Rebellion for Freedom. Arc’s organization is the catalyst for setting the world on fire and starting World War III. Shawn Arc accomplishes this by playing on other factions’ desires for power and destruction. From using the CIA to cover his tracks from the police and FBI to engineering false flag attacks that cause an all-out war in the Middle East, while Arc in turn continues to build his own secret army. Through all of this, Arc also still finds time to love and meet his future wife. Finally, Arc stages a takeover of a nuclear power plant and seeks to make his own nuclear device. This is the recommended start book for first-time readers of the Conqueror of the Sun series. The Conqueror of the Sun series is a seven-book saga that has been 30 years in the making. The story is about a man named Shawn Arc and his desire for power and control beyond anything achieved in human history so far. The tale takes place in an alternate history that starts in the 1990s and extends far, far into the future. Shawn Arc is willing to do anything to accomplish his goals, whether it be by deception, conspiracy, war, betrayal, or on the backs of millions of dead. At the same time, the story shows that Shawn Arc is also about love, romance, and intimate relationships. Can this man be both monster and human? Or is he merely a larger than normal mirror to reflect the essence of the human condition?
