Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Misa's São Jorge Adventures is a heartfelt and beautifully illustrated children's picture book inspired by real-life adventures on the breathtaking Azorean island of São Jorge, Portugal. Written and illustrated by Portuguese-American author and Fadista Marisa Silva Rocha, the story follows young Misa as she experiences the magic, surprises, traditions, and unforgettable magical, 'frazzly' moments of island life alongside her primos and family. From running away from a touro during a traditional tourada à corda, to getting stung by an água-viva at Porto das Manadas, freezing through cold island baths, tasting raw lapas, spotting spooky nighttime cagarros, and waiting patiently behind wandering cows on narrow island roads, Misa discovers that the most unexpected moments often become the memories we treasure forever. Filled with vibrant mixed-media style illustrations inspired by the landscapes, culture, traditions, foods, and people of São Jorge, this charming story celebrates Portuguese heritage, Azorean identity, family connection, childhood wonder, humor, and resilience. Along the way, readers are introduced to Portuguese vocabulary and cultural traditions through an educational glossary that makes the book both entertaining and enriching for children, families, classrooms, and multicultural libraries. Perfect for ages 5-12, Misa's São Jorge Adventures is a warm and whimsical celebration of family roots, cultural storytelling, and the beauty of embracing life's imperfect adventures. Ideal for families, cultural communities, travel-loving readers, educators, and anyone who cherishes stories filled with laughter, saudade, and heart!

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Avó Silva's Dairy House is a heartfelt, beautifully illustrated story about family, heritage, and the homes that shape us. Set in early San José, California, once known as The Valley of the Heart's Delight, this poetic narrative follows a Portuguese immigrant family whose life was rooted in dairies, orchards, and tradition. Told through the eyes of a granddaughter, the story honors the quiet moments that define a home: shared meals, hard work, laughter, and the enduring love of avós. Blending English with Portuguese language and cultural references, the book includes a glossary to support and enrich the reader's experience. It offers a meaningful glimpse into the richness of Portuguese-American life while celebrating universal themes of memory, belonging, and generational connection. At its heart is a simple yet powerful message: 'The more I give, the more I have, you see.' As time moves forward and the physical home fades, the story reminds us that love, culture, and memory continue to live on, carried through the stories we tell and the lives we touch. A meaningful read for children and adults alike, Avó Silva's Dairy House is a timeless keepsake that honors the past while inspiring future generations.
