and love will delight readers and letter writers of all ages who
will find that many times the most wonderful is found where we
least imagine.Every day, an old mailman rides his bicycle through
the forest delivering letters to the local animals. These letters
seem to have magic in them, as they always help resolve

friendships. The animals are always eager to find out what message
will the mailman be giving them, and everyone is delighted with
these letters. In the forest, there are fewer arguments, and

2017. Una entrañable y sorprendente historia que va a emocionar a
pequeños y mayores, porque muchas veces lo más maravilloso se
encuentra donde menos imaginamos.Un cartero silencioso y solitario.
Unas cartas. Un secreto. Todos los dÃas, un cartero pasea en
bicicleta por el bosque entregando cartas a los animales locales.
Estas cartas parecen mágicas, ya que siempre ayudan a resolver
malentendidos, intercambiar invitaciones a cenar o tomar el té y
formar amistades. Los animales siempre están ansiosos por saber
qué mensaje les dará el cartero, y todos están encantados con
las cartas. En el bosque hay menos discusiones y reina la armonÃa.
Lo que nadie sabe es que todas las noches el dedicado cartero
escribe cada carta una a una, pensando detenidamente qué escribir
y a quién va dirigida. De hecho, él es el único que no recibe
correspondencia. Hasta que un dÃa recibe una carta muy especial en
su buzón.
The characters from The Lonely Mailman and A Mystery in the Forest
return in a story about bullying and the importance of speaking up
when it happens around us.A little beaver with droopy ears and a
sad expression. A mischievous boar. And a squirrel who doesn’t
miss a thing. Little Beaver always went unnoticed. At school, he
always sat in the back of the classroom; in the forest, he would
hide behind the trees so that no one would spot him. However,
although he would have wished to be invisible, misfortune and
setbacks haunted him. Little Beaver seemed like bad luck’s
shadow. But… Why did everything happen to him? One day Squirrel
realized that coincidence was not the reason for Beaver's sad eyes.
Willing to discover who is behind these small injustices, Squirrel
will seek the help of all her friends to awaken the voice of the
forest, that voice that always brings peace and unity.

Deer starts his daily route, but someone seems to have already been
there… Worried, Deer decides to go home, and what a surprise! The
house is turned upside down and… someone has stolen his precious

When Princess Nona has simply had enough of being a princess, she
leaves her parents' palace and takes her destiny into her own
hands, searching for a way of life that's more to her liking. After
all, being a fairytale princess isn't easy. She can't make
mistakes, or yawn, or scratch her nose. She must be discreet, play
the harpsichord, smile all the time, and wait for her Prince
Charming to arrive. Children will follow along on Nona's adventures
as she tries new things and meets new people, until she finally
figures out what makes her happy. This story written in verse
emphasizes values such as equality, the importance of being
oneself, and having the courage to follow one's dreams. "Cuando la
princesa Nona se harta de ser princesa, abandona el palacio de sus
padres y toma control de su propio destino, yendo en busca de un
estilo de vida que le plazca mas. Pues al fin y al cabo, ser una
princesa de cuentos de hadas no es facil. No puede cometer errores,
o bostezar, o rascarse la nariz. Tiene que ser muy discreta, tocar
el clave, sonreir todo el tiempo y esperar la llegada de su
Principe Azul. Los jovenes lectores seguiran las aventuras de Nona
mientras prueba cosas nuevas y conoce a gente nueva, hasta que por
fin descubre lo que la hace feliz. Esta historia escrita en verso
enfatiza valores tales como la igualdad, la importancia de ser uno
mismo y tener el valor necesario para ir en busca de los suenos
propios."
