Las verdaderas confesiones de
Charlotte Doyle
The True Confessions of Charlotte
Doyle
History, Traveling, Feelings and Emotions,
Adventure

A vicious captain, a mutinous crew—and a
young girl caught in the middle.
“Not every thirteen-year old girl is accused
of murder, brought to trial, and found guilty.
But I was such a girl, and my story is worth
relating even if it did happen years ago. Be
warned, however, this is no Story of a Bad
Boy, no What Katy Did. If strong ideas and
action offend you, read no more. Find another
companion to share your idle hours. For my
part I intend to tell the truth as I lived it.”
Avi is the Award-Winning author of more than
sixty books, including Crispin: The Cross of
Lead, a Newbery Medal winner. First published
in 1990, The True Confessions of Charlotte
Doyle is one of his most acclaimed works.

dispuestos a renunciar a sus
sueños
Steve Jobs: The Man Who Thought
Different
Biography, Making a Difference, Creativity,
Technology, Achieving Goals, Work
8–12
From the start, his path was never predictable.
Steve Jobs was given up for adoption at birth,
dropped out of college after one semester,
and at the age of twenty, created Apple in his
parents’ garage with his friend Steve
Wozniack. Then came the core and hallmark
of his genius--his exacting moderation for
perfection, his counterculture life approach,
and his level of taste and style that pushed
all boundaries. A devoted husband, father,
and Buddhist, he battled cancer for over a
decade, became the ultimate CEO, and made
the world want every product he touched.
Critically acclaimed author Karen Blumenthal
takes us to the core of this complicated
and legendary man while simultaneously
exploring the evolution of computers.
