Story
Max loves stories, especially the fantastical tale Buelo tells him about a mystical gatekeeper who can guide brave travellers on a journey into tomorrow. If Max could see tomorrow, he would know if he'd make Santa Maria's celebrated fútbol team, and whether he'd ever find his mother, who left when he was a baby. Papa refuses to talk about her, so Max has learned to stop asking. But when Papa is forced to reveal his involvement in an underground network of guardians that led people fleeing a neighboring country to safety, everything Max knew about himself and his family is upended.

Publisher's summary
Neftalí’s father wants him to be a doctor. But Neftalí is not like other children. How he reconciles his own dreams with his father’s is at the heart of this profoundly moving story of the life of poet Pablo Neruda.
From the time he is a young boy, Neftalí hears the call of a mysterious voice. Even when the neighborhood children taunt him, and when his harsh, authoritarian father ridicules him, and when he doubts himself, Neftalí knows he cannot ignore the call. Under the canopy of the lush rain forest, into the fearsome sea, and through the persistent Chilean rain, he listens and he follows.
Combining elements of magical realism with biography, poetry, and literary fiction, Pam Muñoz Ryan takes listeners on a rare journey of the heart and imagination.

The kingdom of Cornucopia was once the happiest in the world.

Everything was perfect - except for the misty Marshlands to the north, which, according to legend, were home to the monstrous Ickabog. Anyone sensible knew that the Ickabog was just a myth to scare children into behaving. But the funny thing about myths is that sometimes they take on a life of their own.

Story
Minni lives in the poorest part of Mumbai, where access to water is limited to a few hours a day and the communal taps have long lines. Lately, though, even that access is threatened by severe water shortages and thieves who are stealing this precious commodity—an act that Minni accidentally witnesses one night. Meanwhile, in the high-rise building where she just started to work, she discovers that water streams out of every faucet and there’s even a rooftop swimming pool. What Minni also discovers there is one of the water mafia bosses.

Beautiful and Engaging Story of a Young Pablo Neruda
What a beautiful and inspiring story about following your heart and pursuing your dreams. This is a story based on the life of the young Pablo Neruda, Nobel prize winning poet from Chile. Excellent narration makes the story and characters come alive, and I couldn’t stop listening. It was refreshing to hear voice with an authentic Latino accent. The author, Pam Muñoz Ryan, delivers another brilliant multi-layered story about a young boy who is a dreamer, a lover of words, an observer of nature and people, a shy romantic who knows he doesn’t fit in, but only wants his strict father’s approval and acknowledgment of his passion. The story also weaves in, with honesty and integrity, the struggle of the indigenous Mapuche peoples’ to claim their sovereign Chilean land.
I highly recommend this book for 4th or 5th grade readers to adult. Poignant, inspiring, beautiful, and historical in context, I highly recommend this wonderful book! (and also all of Pam Muñoz Ryan’s books)

This was inspirational and it helps us understand that no matter what people says we are capable of anything
Like a said this is inspirational and I love to recommend this to others.
I loved how Neftali overcame his fear of telling his father what is right I did not dislike anything.
I would love to recommend it to everyone especially people who follows other people's orders
Then again you can add 1 or 2 more drawings so people can picture what is happening

Not recommending ...
I struggled to finish this title. I read this book as a challenge to myself to complete all the novels in my 5th grade classroom. I wanted to do this to be able to give authentic recommendations to my students. This is a book I will probably recommend sparingly. I did not enjoy this at all.
