Book Description

Vultures are voracious! They eat a lot of yucky stuff--and that's good because it keeps things tidy. Here are 20 questions and answers about these clean-up birds so you'll know all about them. You'll learn why vultures' heads are bald, why vultures vomit, why vultures don't get sick when they eat rotten meat, why they circle in the sky, what baby vultures look like (cute fuzzballs), and whether turkey vultures gobble (no!). Make a turkey vulture mobile, a vulture collage, and connect the dots to reveal a Eurasian vulture. Next in series > > See all of the books in this series

Book Description

Terra Nostra is one of the great masterpieces of modern Latin American fiction. Concerned with nothing less than the history of Spain and of South America, with the Indian Gods and with Christianity, with the birth, the passion, and the death of civilizations, Fuentes's great novel is, indeed, that rare creation--the total work of art. Magnificently translated by Margaret Sayers Peden, Terra Nostra is, as Milan Kundera says in his afterword, "the spreading out of the novel, the exploration of its possibilities, the voyage to the edge of what only a novelist can see and say."
