In this brilliantly illustrated book, Pili joins her friend Ánugwe in a quest to find out why the birds of the world are losing their colors. This exciting adventure takes the two friends through magical places across one the most biodiverse countries in the world, Colombia. The mission seems simple at first, but as they search for a tiny and almost extinct hummingbird, they realize the problem is on a bigger scale: climate change and deforestation are putting the birds in danger. This story is about friendship and leadership, motivation and resilience, a changing planet and embracing sustainability. Can Pili and Ánugwe bring back the birds' colors? Hand-in-hand with Pili, the reader discovers the adventures of a little girl who travels the world with her dad, National Geographic photographer and Safina Center fellow Kike Calvo. The birds are losing their colors out of sadness because they are losing their homes. A world without colorful birds is a world much less beautiful than the world we were born to. Can Pili find a way to reverse this tragedy, and get the birds' colors back? There is a way. As you'll read in this terrific story." Carl Safina The Safina Center Bestselling Author and Award-winning Conservationist "The Adventures of Pili in Colombia is a fable of love and friendship, a quest for answers to explain why the birds have lost their colors. At once full of radiance and joy, sadness and loss, the book encourages children to embrace conservation, to love nature, and to be kind to the world. Kike Calvo has written a beautiful book destined to be beloved by many." Luanne Rice New York Times Bestselling Author "Follow the exciting Adventures of Pili as she explores the kaleidoscopic marvels of Colombian nature, its biodiversity and people, threats and conservation. Kike Calvo conjures a magic spell for the child in each of us. You will never be the same and will never want to leave. A true joy of a book." Thomas Lovejoy.

Nighthawk: The Tale of a Flightless Mosquito: Nighthaw was a special mosquito. So special he was born wingless. But how he wished he was like the others. He longed to buzz freely through the air, and explore the earth with long and strong wings. When life gives you lemons, you make lemonade! Take off on Nighthawk's adventure as he goes in search of happiness, and discover how helping others can help you! --------------------------- Nighthawk: La Historia del Mosquito sin Alas. Nighthawk era un mosquito especial. Tan especial que nació sin alas. Pero cómo deseaba ser como los demás. Anhelaba zumbar libremente por el aire y explorar la tierra con unas alas largas y fuertes. Cuando la vida te da limones, ¡haces limonada! ¡Embárcate en la aventura de Nighthawk en busca de la felicidad y descubre cómo ayudar a los demás puede ayudarte a ti mismo! -------------------- ]Children who are lucky enough to get their hands on Nighthawk: The Tale of a Flightless Mosquito In a gaily illustrated and narrated book, Kike Calvo's message comes to life as we delve into the story: the importance of helping others becomes palpable, and it is accompanied by the universal idea of overcoming the odds. Nighthawk's story is similar to my own, to my adaptation process to a new prosthesis. I hope that no child or adult will forget that even if it is hard for us, we must all accept ourselves as we are, and that, as we walk, we must help others.] -- El Biblioburro. ]While reading the story of the mosquito, I couldn't help but remember my own when I lost a leg in an accident with one of my donkeys. What surprised me the most when I learned about the background of this story is that when Kike wrote the original manuscript, he was only 10 years old, the same age as many of the children I share the love of reading with. I can't wait to see how these stories illuminate the lives of thousands of children, encouraging them to overcome the adversities that life will present.] -- El Biblioburro.

The purpose of this bilingual book is to show children the beauty of another language, and that learning a new language doesn't have to be boring. The story also delivers a message that when we don't take the time to listen to each other, we tend to judge others quickly before we get to know them.
