Hablar sobre las redes sociales y los adolescentes en un momento en que las plataformas digitales han transformado la manera de relacionarnos e informarnos, va más allá de una simple conversación. Más que una necesidad, comprender el impacto que tienen en las nuevas generaciones, es una responsabilidad. Este libro de nuestro querido hermano y amigo Nelson Rodríguez no sólo aborda el tema desde una perspectiva informativa, sino que lo hace con una mirada integral: social, emocional e histórica. Desde el primer capítulo, el lector es llevado por un recorrido que no sólo explica cómo funcionan las redes sociales y su evolución, sino que también explora el cerebro adolescente, su salud mental y el papel crucial que desempeñan los padres y adultos en la educación digital de los jóvenes.

Frodo and the Companions of the Ring have been beset by danger during their quest to prevent the Ruling Ring from falling into the hands of the Dark Lord by destroying it in the Cracks of Doom. Now they continue their journey alone down the great River Anduin—alone, that is, save for the mysterious creeping figure that follows wherever they go. This elegant hardcover—now available for the first time in the United States—is one of five Collector’s Editions of Tolkien’s most beloved works, and an essential piece of any Tolkien reader’s library.

The riveting new novel by the author of the 2021 National Book Award winner and bestseller Hell of a Book People Like Us is Jason Mott’s electric new novel. It is not memoir, yet it has deeply personal connections to Jason’s life. And while rooted in reality, it explodes with dreamlike experiences that pull a reader in and don’t let go, from the ability to time travel to sightings of sea monsters and peacocks, and feelings of love and memory so real they hurt. In People Like Us, two Black writers are trying to find peace and belonging in a world that is riven with gun violence. One is on a global book tour after a big prize win; the other is set to give a speech at a school that has suffered a shooting. And as their two storylines merge, truths and antics abound in equal measure: characters drink booze out of an award trophy; menaces lurk in the shadows; tiny French cars putter around the countryside; handguns seem to hover in the air; and dreams endure against all odds.

Shoot all the bluejays you want, if you can hit em, but remember it's a sin to kill a mockingbird One of the most cherished stories of all time, To Kill a Mockingbird has earned many distinctions since its publi­cation in 1960. It won the Pulitzer Prize, was named the best novel of the twentieth century by librarians across the nation, and was voted by readers as America’s “most beloved novel” on PBS’s The Great American Read. It remains a staple of many high school reading lists across the coun­try and has been translated into more than forty languages, selling more than forty million copies worldwide. A gripping, heart-wrenching, and wholly remarkable tale of coming-of-age in a South poisoned by virulent prejudice, it views a world of great beauty and savage inequities through the eyes of a young girl, Scout Finch, and her brother, Jem, as their father, Atticus—a crusading local lawyer—risks everything to defend a Black man unjustly accused of a terrible crime.
