"Elena and Miguel's parents don't live in the same house anymore. Now the kids live in two, Mami's during the week and Papi's on weekends. "At first," Elena says, "it felt like I left half of me behind each time I changed houses. And it didn't feel like family anymore." Elena wonders if Rico the cat misses Papi; surely, he too senses the change. At the movie theater, only three share the big tub of popcorn. The kids help their mom pick the oranges off the tree, something their dad used to do. On weekends, Papi makes pancakes for them, but they're not quite like the ones their mom makes. "It doesn't feel like family anymore." Gradually, the siblings begin to adjust to their new lives. At birthday parties, they're surrounded by relatives and "in the circle of cousins, it felt like family again." And when all four grandparents and both parents cheer Elena on at her soccer game, their obvious pride in her feels even better than the points she scored. "It feels like family!" This bilingual picture book for young readers explores a difficult subject experienced by many children--divorce and the resulting changes in their lives--while highlighting the importance of relationships with extended family members."

A debut middle-grade adventure about a young teen who goes on a treasure hunt for undersea riches to help his ailing abuelo. Twelve-year-old Fernando “Fin” joins his grandfather on a secret quest to find a long-lost treasure swept to sea. But when their first mission takes a near-deadly turn, leaving his abuelo weak and unable to speak, Fin’s left to navigate the hunt alone. Well, not exactly alone—his boring, totally unadventurous dad agrees to help out. With danger lurking at every turn, Fin dives into the mission in order to save Abuelo's life. But between Dad’s constant worrying, unwanted diving babysitters, and harrowing encounters in the deep sea, the boy finds himself in a race against time to locate the treasure. If he can’t succeed? He fears he might lose Abuelo for good. S.A. Rodriguez's Treasure Tracks is a fast-paced story filled with heart and humor about the bonds of family, the meaning of a legacy, and most of all, the discovery of true treasure.
