Federico Exaggerated

Author: Hazel Pacheco

Illustrator: Kim Sponaugle

Publisher: Hazel P Rosenthal

Ages: 4 and older

This is an amazing book! It is a sequel to the book “Henry Wondered.” The main character, Federico, is a quail who lives in the Rio Grande bosque. Federico loves to exaggerate. Sometimes he exaggerates a little too much. This book teaches kids that if you lie a lot, your friends will start to not believe you. It has amazing illustrations and a lot of great words. Hopefully, Federico can learn when not to exaggerate. Read the book to find out what happens.

The Flying Man

Author: Mike Downs

Illustrator: David Hohn

Ages: 7-10 years

Publisher: Astra Young Readers

I like this book because it is about history and I like history! This book tells people about Otto Lilienthal and his little brother, Gustav Lilienthal, and how they make a gliding machine. It took them many, many years to create it. The book includes a lot of fascinating facts and details. First Otto and Gustav thought they had to make a flying machine with wings that flap like a bird. Then they saw a stork gliding instead of flapping. It struck them that they had to make the wings glide, not flap. Find out what happens next by reading this amazing book.
