Winner at the 2015 International Latino Book Awards. Charlotte and Claire, two sisters who will discover the wonders of eating fruit by playing and laughing, while talking about family, friendship, peace or diversity. In a little town in the south of Spain, next to the sea, lived two little girls named Charlotte and Claire. It was a lovely place, surrounded by magical trees which grew wonderful fruits with thousands of different colors and aromas. The two sisters decided to play a game: every day of the week they would choose a color, think of a fruit in the same color, make up a short story about it, and then eat it for their afternoon snack. The first years of a child’s life are essential when it comes to developing healthy eating habits. As we all know, fruit is an essential part of their diet, but can it be fun too? Fun and Fruit is a truly delicious tale, full of bright colors to help parents and educators show children how to enjoy a type of food that’s full of energy and poetry.

Read Along or Enhanced eBook: The eighth book in the popular Sir Cumference series, SIR CUMFERENCE AND THE OFF-THE-CHARTS DESSERT introduces readers to different methods of collecting data. Sir Cumference and Lady Di of Ameter are in a pickle. The castle cook is sick and the Harvest Faire is coming up—who will make the special dessert for this annual event? Two bakers in town, Pia of Chartres and Bart Graf, are up to the task. But after sampling Pia’s delicious pies and Bart’s scrumptious cookies, Sir Cumference and Lady Di just can’t choose! They come up with a solution: hold a contest and let the townspeople choose the dessert to be served at the faire. When Pia and Bart’s methods of tracking their votes fail, they each realize they need to come up with a better system. Pia places a colored candy around the edges of a pie dough and Bart stacks his cookie molds—each color candy or mold shape represents a different kind of pie or cookie. Thus, the pie chart and bar graph are born! But when the contest ends in a tie, Pia and Bart concoct a hybrid recipe that everyone enjoys.
