Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the picture book Princess and the Warrior: A Tale of Two Volcanoes, award-winning author and illustrator Duncan Tonatiuh brings a cherished Mexican legend to life. A Pura Belpré Illustrator Honor Book ALA/ALSC Notable Children’s Book! “A palette of earthy, evocative colors . . . A genuine triumph.” ―Kirkus Reviews (Starred Review) “Use this Aztec legend to inspire readers while teaching a bit about dramatic irony.” —School Library Journal Izta was the most beautiful princess in the land, and suitors traveled from far and wide to woo her. Even though she was the daughter of the emperor, Izta had no desire to marry a man of wealth and power. Instead, she fell in love with Popoca, a brave warrior who fought in her father’s army—and a man who did not offer her riches but a promise to stay by her side forever. The emperor did not want his daughter to marry a mere warrior, but he recognized Popoca’s bravery. He offered Popoca a deal: If the warrior could defeat their enemy, Jaguar Claw, then the emperor would permit Popoca and Izta to wed. But Jaguar Claw had a plan to thwart the warrior. Would all be lost? Today two majestic volcanoes—Popocatépetl and Iztaccíhuatl—stand overlooking Mexico City. They have been admired and revered for countless generations and have formed the basis of many origin and creation myths. The integration of Nahuatl words (defined with a pronunciation guide in the glossary) into the narrative provides a rich opportunity to introduce and explore another facet of ancient Aztec culture. Take your child on an adventure back in time to a land of color and beauty.

Download or read book Angelwings written by and published by University of Hawaii Press. This book was released on 2003-01-31 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lesbian and gay--or queer--fiction (known in Mandarin as tongzhi wenxue) constitutes a major contribution to Taiwanese literature, as evidenced by the remarkable number of prestigious literary awards won by many of the authors of the short stories presented here. Indeed, the meteoric rise of this new genre was a defining feature of Taiwan's literary scene in the 1990s. Queer fiction was also instrumental in forming self-identifying subcultural gay readerships, thus serving a significant political function. But most strikingly, this fiction has been immensely popular with general readers in Taiwan, Hong Kong, and Singapore, as well as in diasporic Chinese communities worldwide. The startlingly fresh, brave voices that speak through these stories attest to the powerful social ferment of the past ten years in Taiwan, which have witnessed a revolution in discourses on sex and sexuality in the public sphere.

Demoralized by insidious rumors and simmering community distrust of her witch heritage, she fled. She may have planned to start a progressive new community in Greenland, but Fate, and Mother Nature, had another plan for her. Despite perishing during her voyage, she’s been allowed a second chance to build her dream. That means mending the rifts torn into her New World legacy and punishing the adversaries intent on destroying her descendants. While she’s focused on propping up her namesake tribe in New Mexico, unexpected distractions abound. The powerful fairy Lachlann Grant contends that she’s the fated partner he’s been waiting a thousand years for. Though he insists that their pairing is meant to right wrongs and balance them both, she’s wary. She didn’t claw her way back to the realm of the living to have her flame doused by yet another opinionated brute. But is he one? If she can’t trust that her fortune has finally turned for the better, not only will she spurn the rare partner capable of understanding her terrific magic, but she’ll cast herself as an outsider in the place where she was meant to be a queen.
