Marie Hall Ets's Books

A young boy whose playmate is the wind and finds its many moods: one that can sail boats, fly kites, blow dirt, and turn umbrellas inside out.

Rosa was born in a silk-making village in Lombardy, a major source of north Italian emigration. She first set foot in the United States at the Castle Garden immigrant depot on the tip of Manhattan. Her life in this country was hard, and Ets chronicles it in eloquent detail - Rosa endures a marriage at sixteen to an abusive older man, an unwilling migration to a Missouri mining town, the unassisted birth of a child, and manages to escape from a husband who tried to force her into prostitution.

Ceci anxiously awaits her first posada, the special Mexican Christmas party, and the opportunity to select a piñata for it.

Sketches and brief text describe how we convey our feelings and desires without using words.

Gilberto can always count on his friend Wind to be there. However, he can't always predict Wind's mood. Will his friend by playful? Fierce? Helpful? Frisky?
