The Search for WondLa
Summary
When a marauder destroys the underground sanctuary that Eva Nine was raised in by the robot Muthr, the 12-year-year-old girl is forced to flee aboveground. Eva Nine is searching for anyone else like her, for she knows that other humans exist, because of an item she treasures: a scrap of cardboard on which is depicted a young girl, an adult, and a robot, with the strange word, WondLa.
Tony DiTerlizzi honors traditional children's literature in this totally original space-age adventure - one that is as complex as an alien planet, but as simple as a child's wish for a place to belong.

May Bird and the Ever After
Summary
Most people aren't very comfortable in the woods, but the woods of Briery Swamp fit May Bird like a fuzzy mitten. There, she is safe from school and the taunts and teases of kids who don't understand her. Hidden in the trees, May is a warrior princess, and her cat, Somber Kitty, is her brave guardian. Then May falls into the lake. When she crawls out, May finds herself in a world that most certainly does not feel like a fuzzy mitten. In fact it is a place few living people have ever seen. Here, towns glow blue beneath zipping stars and the people walk through walls. Here theBook of the Dead holds the answers to everything in the universe. And here, if May is discovered, the horrifyingly evil Bo Cleevil will turn her into nothing. May Bird must get out. Fast. Within these pages, Jodi Lynn Anderson shares with us the beginning of May Bird's daring journey into the Ever After, a haunting place where true friends, and one terrible foe, await her on every corner.

El Principito [The Little Prince]
Summary
La obra maestra de Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, un clásico que ha fascinado a niños y adultos desde su publicación en 1943. Por su estilo, los niños se sienten invitados a escuchar el audiolibro de El principito; por su contenido profundo y metafórico, los adultos también se sienten atraídos por él. Saint-Exupéry escribió esta novela corta a partir de sus experiencias como piloto de guerra en el desierto del Sahara. Es la historia de un aviador que se encuentra con un niño, al que llama “Principito”, y que tiene el don de decir las cosas tal como son, no como parecen ser. El principito en realidad no es un terrícola, sino que vive en un asteroide, desde donde llegó a la Tierra después de haber visitado diferentes planetas. El audiolibro contiene las historias que el niño le cuenta al aviador sobre los distintos encuentros que ha tenido en los planetas que ha visitado y donde ha conocido a un montón de adultos encerrados en sí mismos, como un rey sin súbditos, un narcisista sin admiradores, un borracho avergonzado de su alcoholismo, un comerciante convencido de poseer las estrellas, un farolero y un geógrafo experto en mapas pero que desconoce los territorios reales. El principito también le cuenta acerca de los encuentros que ha tenido en el planeta Tierra, y cómo ha extraído enseñanzas sobre el amor, la soledad y la amistad a partir de ellos. Los oyentes disfrutarán especialmente la narración de esta obra literaria que hace la booktuber Raiza Revelles con su voz juvenil. Please note: This audiobook is in Spanish.
