Description

“El ritmo rápido, vocabulario sencillo y un toque de ciencias de la tierra despiertan el interés de los jóvenes coleccionistas de rocas en todas partes”. – Kirkus
 
"A los lectores que adoran a Ivy y Bean o a Katie Woo les encantará conocer a Jada Jones". - School Library Journal
 
Con los bolsillos llenos de rocas y una camiseta con un dragón púrpura, la estudiante amante de las ciencias, Jada, hace su debut en esta serie de novelas infantiles perfecta para los jóvenes lectores.

Cuando su mejor amiga se muda lejos, la escuela es el último lugar a donde Jada Jones desea ir. Preferiría quedarse fuera y buscar rocas sensacionales para su colección, porque encontrar rocas es mucho más fácil que encontrar amigos. Así que, cuando la maestra de Jada anuncia un proyecto sobre rocas y minerales, Jada finalmente se siente en su elemento. El único problema es que a una de sus compañeras de equipo no le gustan ninguna de las ideas de Jada. Tampoco parece que Jada le cae bien. ¿Encontrará Jada la manera de crear un proyecto de ciencias ganador y ganar también una nueva amiga?
 
Esta novela infantil es una transición entre las lecturas graduadas y las novelas juveniles para los niños que leen con fluidez y se están adaptando al formato de libros por capítulos. Con unas 5,000 palabras aproximadamente, capítulos cortos y arte a dos colores en casi todas las páginas, atraerá a este singular lector. El arte a dos colores ayudará a los lectores en la transición del arte a cuatro colores de las lecturas graduadas y les facilitará la adaptación a los libros por capítulos en blanco y negro.
 

About the Author

Vanessa Brantley-Newton (vanessabrantleynewton.com) grew up in a musical family, and her parents taught her how to sing to help overcome her stuttering. Shake is Off is inspired by her experiences, and the story of the little goat in this book was the basis for her TED Talk, “Diversity Designed by Adversity” (tinyurl.com/y6savcqj), which highlighted the importance of knowing your own  worth and rising up when others want to put you down. Vanessa is a beloved storyteller and has illustrated numerous picture books, including New York Times bestsellers The Queen of Kindergarten and The King of Kindergarten (both by Derrick Barnes), Mary Had a Little Glam (by Tammi Sauer), One Love (by Cedella Marley), and The Youngest Marcher (by Cynthia Levinson), as well as the chapter book series Ruby and the Booker Boys (by Derrick Barnes) and Jada Jones (by Kelly Starling Lyons). Some of the picture books she’s written and illustrated include Just Like Me, Becoming Vanessa and Grandma’s Purse. Vanessa lives in Charlotte, North Carolina.
