A middle grade graphic novel follows the adventures of a magical
boy from Maya mythology. The first of a series based on ancient
Mesoamerican myths and legends. Sayam has always been different
from other kids-he's very short for his age, his best friend is a
monkey, and most curious of all: he was born from an egg! His
grandmother, a witch, found him and taught him all the ancient
magic she uses to help her people. So when a giant snake starts
terrorizing a nearby city, Sayam decides it's time for him to use
his knowledge to help others, and steps into action. But the beast
might not be Sayam's biggest problem: the ruthless King Kinich Kak
Ek sees Sayam as a threat to his throne. Prophecy declares that
whoever succeeds at three impossible tests will be king. Monstrous
snakes and impossible tests are a lot for a boy to handle, but
Sayam is brave and has a loyal monkey, a wise grandmother, and
magical knowledge on his side! Fans of adventure tales with a
mythological focus-such as Bowles' previous work with Latin
American myths, The Chupacabras of the Rio Grande and the Garza
Twin series, as well as Rick Riordan Presents, especially the Storm
Runner novels-will love this exciting and accessible graphic novel.
Rise of the Halfling King is also an invaluable educational tool
for middle school students-it's a well-researched introduction to
Maya culture, made accessible by an expert in Mesoamerican culture
and juvenile literature. Bowles previously stitched together tales
from Maya, Aztec, and other ancient mythology from pre-Columbian
Mexico in the critically-acclaimed YA book, Feathered Serpent, Dark
Heart of Sky. David Bowles is a Mexican American author and
educator based in South Texas. He has written fourteen books. His
middle grade novel-in-verse They Call Me Guero has been the
recipient of numerous honors such as the Pura Belpre Honor, the
Tomas Rivera Mexican American Children's Book Award, the Claudia
Lewis Award for Excellence in Poetry, the Walter Dean Myers Honor
Award for Outstanding Children's Literature, the Texas Institute of
Letters Best Middle Grade Book Award, the Skipping Stones Award;
the book is also an Americas Book Award Commended Title and was
named in the Bluebonnet Award Masterlist. Some of his other books
are Feathered Serpent, Dark Heart of Sky and The Smoking Mirror.
Charlene Bowles is a comic artist and illustrator based in Texas.
She graduated from The University of Texas Rio Grande Valley in

Fifteen thousand years before Europeans stepped foot in the
Americas, people had already spread from tip to tip and coast to
coast. Like all humans, these Native Americans sought to understand
their place in the universe, the nature of their relationship with
the divine, and the origin of the world into which their ancestors
had emerged. The answers lay in their sacred stories. Author Maria
Garcia Esperon, illustrator Amanda Mijangos, and translator David
Bowles have gifted us a treasure. Their talents have woven this
collection of stories from nations and cultures across our two
continents-the Sea-Ringed World, as the Aztecs called it-from the
edge of Argentina all the way up to Alaska. The Em Querido list
seeks to introduce the finest books in translation from around the
world to an American audience. We feel lucky to be bringing you
this book on our inaugural list, which we hope will be a true
window and mirror.

Mexico. 1418. Meet Prince Acolmiztli. Puma of the Acolhua People.
Heir to his father's throne. Half Acolhuan, half Mexica. Singer.
Warrior. Poet. Sixteen years old. And now, betrayed. A palace plot,
placed by the deadly Tepaneca Empire, kills his mother and
siblings, puts his father's army into retreat, and sends Prince
Acolmiztli into a treacherous exile. Battling hunger, snow-swept
mountains, and the machinations of the city-states all around him,
Prince Acolmiztli vows revenge. It will take years, but he will
return to seek justice. And he'll do it with a new name:
Nezahualcoyotl. Fasting Coyote. One of the most legendary figures
in history. From the award-winning comes a heart-pounding
historical epic that is Gladiator meets the Song of Achilles -- The
Count of Monte Cristo set in pre-Columbian Mexico. Illustrated
throughout gorgeously by Amanda Mijangos, The Prince & the
Coyote brings to life one of Mexico's most treasured heroes -
Nezahualcoyotl - in a story that will thrill readers far and wide.
(FAQ). Eric Clapton has been a rock god for half a century. From
busking on street corners and in local pubs to the raw blues of the
Yardbirds, the rock/blues fusion of Cream, the guitar brilliance of
Derek and the Dominoes, and the unforgettable songs of his solo
career, he has proven his incomparable talent in the music world.
His enduring presence has made him the subject of countless books,
articles, reviews, websites, and gossip. Is there really anything
new to learn about the man they call Slowhand? Eric Clapton FAQ
combines the obvious, the well-known, the obscure, and the unknown
into one place. It was not written as a definitive Clapton
biography or a tell-all book that has the final say. It is, as the
title suggests, a book of facts. Clapton is one of those public
figures we know much about, but he still seems to be partially
shrouded in mystery. Sometimes the stories and facts about his life
change and evolve, which is all a part of his mystique. Eric
Clapton FAQ uncovers some of that mystery and celebrates his talent
in an entertaining style. Packed with dozens of rare images, this
book is must for Slowhand fans.
1418 - Pre-Columbian Mexico Fifteen-year old crown prince
Acolmiztli wants nothing more than to see his city-state of
Tetzcoco thrive. A singer, poet, and burgeoning philosophical mind,
he has big plans about infrastructure projects and cultural
initiatives that will bring honor to his family and help his people
flourish. But the two sides of his family, the kingdoms of Mexico
and Acolhuacan, have been at war his entire life – after his
father risked the wrath of the Tepanec emperor to win his
mother’s love. When a power struggle leaves his father dead and
his mother and siblings in exile, Acolmiztli must run for his life,
seeking refuge in the wilderness. After a coyote helps him find his
way in the wild, he takes on a new name – Nezahualcoyotl, or
“fasting coyote” (“Neza” for short). Biding his time until
he can form new alliances and reconnect with his family, Neza goes
undercover, and falls in love with a commoner girl, Sekalli. Can
Neza survive his plotting uncles’ scheme to wipe out his line for
good? Will the empire he dreams of in Tetzcoco ever come to life?
And is he willing to risk the lives of those he loves in the
process? This action-packed tale blends prose and poetry –
including translations of surviving poems by Nezahualcoytl himself,
translated from classical Nahuatl by the author. And the book is
packed with queer rep – queer love stories, and a thoughtful of
pre-columbian understandings of gender that defy the contemporary
Western gender binary. From Pura Belpré honoree David Bowles comes
a young adult epic about one of the greatest minds of the Americas
(honored to this day on Mexico’s 100-peso bill).
