This bilingual story of Maria la Tortuga will inspire both children and adults while reminding us, there’s always a solution. Written in English and Spanish, Maria la Tortuga is the result of multi-generational friendships supported by a desire to heal the ocean. During a national food shortage in Cuba in the 1990's, locals in Guanahacabibes were eating sea turtles and overfishing as they fended off starvation. Dr. Maria Elena Ibarra Martin, who led the Center for Marine Research at the University of Havana, convinced her government to protect Guanahacabibes. Asher’s mother and grandfather visited the area during the initial recovery phase in 1998 and developed a friendship with Dr. Martin. In 2018, after many trips to Cuba with others who held a similar passion, Asher’s family and friends successfully nominated Guanahacabibes as a Hope Spot for The Mission Blue Foundation, founded by Dr. Sylvia Earle. A year later, Asher and Hector visited the area to learn how it went from a scene of destruction to the focus of a conservation partnership.From this experience, Asher wrote the story of Maria, a baby sea turtle who was born during the food shortage and narrowly escaped death. When she returns decades later to lay her first batch of eggs, she doesn’t recognize her home. Her new friend, Osmani, explains why and how it changed. The story offers small steps that anyone, no matter where they live, can take to be part of the solution.

Download or read book The Languages of the Andes written by Willem F. H. Adelaar and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2004-06-10 with total page 746 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Andean and Pacific regions of South America are home to a remarkable variety of languages and language families, with a range of typological differences. This linguistic diversity results from a complex historical background, comprising periods of greater communication between different peoples and languages, and periods of fragmentation and individual development. The Languages of the Andes documents in a single volume the indigenous languages spoken and formerly spoken in this linguistically rich region, as well as in adjacent areas. Grouping the languages into different cultural spheres, it describes their characteristics in terms of language typology, language contact, and the social perspectives of present-day languages. The authors provide both historical and contemporary information, and illustrate the languages with detailed grammatical sketches. Written in a clear and accessible style, this book will be a valuable source for students and scholars of linguistics and anthropology alike.
