Long before the Everglades became one of the largest wetlands in the world and a national park, it was covered by a warm, shallow sea. Across millions of years, sea levels dropped, the land below surfaced, and the area transformed into a thriving environment for unique plants and animals like mangrove forests and the Florida panther. By the mid-1800s, most of the indigenous people living in the Everglades had been killed or forced off the land. By 1900, Florida had become the nation's twenty-seventh state and had begun draining the Everglades to create land for farms and cities.

Newbery Medalist Tae Keller’s debut picture book is a resplendent account of humankind’s relationship with our most precious resource: the sun. From the first human settlements to today’s modern metropolises, we have always relied on the sun for light, energy, and sustenance. We Carry the Sun traces the history of solar power from ancient south-facing villages to the Industrial Age and modern innovators; and from solar-powered steam engines to silicon solar panels.

La era de los dinosaurios comenzó hace unos 250 millones de años. Al principio eran bastante pequeños, pero con el tiempo evolucionaron hasta convertirse en las variadas y fascinantes criaturas que hoy cautivan nuestra imaginación. ¡Lo que sabemos sobre los dinosaurios también está evolucionando! Hemos aprendido que algunos dinosaurios eran buenos padres, que a los dinosaurios les salían nuevos dientes cuando se les caían los viejos y que la mayoría de los dinosaurios caminaban sobre dos patas. ¡Incluso hemos descubierto que las aves son parientes modernos de los dinosaurios!

On a beach at the Ría Lagartos nature reserve in Mexico, a sea turtle is born. Newly hatched into a big world, she breaks out of an egg buried in the sand. Now, her journey begins. To reach the ocean she must avoid predatory opossums, crabs, and raccoons—many of her siblings will not make it. But our sea turtle does, and when she finally dives beneath the blue sea, she’ll travel for thousands of miles on a beautiful and pulse-pounding adventure.
