I had this book for a while, there’s some yellow stains. Read once.

Sonia Rodriguez was born in the United States, but her parents are Mexican immigrants who came to California before she was born. Her father has three Social Security numbers, her mother is pregnant (again), and neither of them speaks English. Sonia's mother spends most of her time in bed, watching soap operas, and letting Sonia clean up after her brothers. Sonia's father works dutifully to support his family, but he knows that his daughter's dreams are bigger than making tamales for family get-togethers. When Sonia attempts to put school work before her familia, her mother decides that it's time for Sonia to visit her grandmother in Mexico to learn "the ways of the old world." While in Mexico, Sonia gets to know her wise grandmother and her cousin Maria, who teach her that while familia is important, the most important thing is to follow your heart. Sonia returns to the States determined to succeed in school, but the birth of her new twin siblings, inappropriate advances from her drunk uncle (Drunkle), and a forbidden relationship with an El Salvadorian boy push school to the back burner. If only Sonia can find the time to cook dinner, secretly meet with her boyfriend, avoid her Drunkle, AND finish her homework, she just might be able to graduate from high school. . . .

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION The Baby-Led Weaning, or BLW, is a feeding method for babies; it helps you introduce them to solid foods and independent eating starting at six months old. At that age, your baby can start eating solid foods to supplement the nutrients in breast milk or formula. Baby-Led Weaning proposes to do away with purees and porridge and offer the baby solid foods, cooked the proper way, so that they can feed themselves. Your baby will discover new flavors, colors, textures, and smells sitting at the table along with the family, and they will also learn to use plasticware at their own pace. Not only will they improve chewing and hand-eye coordination, but they will also control their solid food consumption by "self-feeding", and identify when they feel full. No wonder the baby-led weaning is the most common method for weaning in northern Europe. With this book you have the perfect guide to help your child discover food in a fun way, as they learn to have meals together with the family. In addition, you have me: I offer 70 recipes for lunch, dinners, and desserts, and I am here to answer all of your questions about the baby-led weaning method. I guarantee you will be greatly surprised by the results. Do you dare to try it?

Some yellow stains, and a sticker was removed from the covered page. Read only once.

'It was the best of times, it was the worst of times...' Charles Dickens's A Tale of Two Cities portrays a world on fire, split between Paris and London during the brutal and bloody events of the French Revolution. After eighteen years as a political prisoner in the Bastille the aging Dr Manette is finally released and reunited with his daughter in England. There, two very different men, Charles Darnay, an exiled French aristocrat, and Sydney Carton, a disreputable but brilliant English lawyer, become enmeshed through their love for Lucie Manette. From the tranquil lanes of London, they are all drawn against their will to the vengeful, bloodstained streets of Paris at the height of the Reign of Terror and soon fall under the lethal shadow of La Guillotine. This edition uses the text as it appeared in its first serial publication in 1859 to convey the full scope of Dickens's vision, and includes the original illustrations by H.K. Browne ('Phiz'). Richard Maxwell's introduction discusses the intricate interweaving of epic drama with personal tragedy. For more than seventy years, Penguin has been the leading publisher of classic literature in the English-speaking world. With more than 1,700 titles, Penguin Classics represents a global bookshelf of the best works throughout history and across genres and disciplines. Readers trust the series to provide authoritative texts enhanced by introductions and notes by distinguished scholars and contemporary authors, as well as up-to-date translations by award-winning translators.
