Books and Babies

I've been collecting Spanish books and activity books for the kids in Xela so when I go back I'll bring full suitcases. Alot of them are great but some of these books I find just won't cut it. Case in point: Heritage Studies for Christian Schools--with activities including coloring Queen Anne's crown and making a paper Liberty Bell. It's great with homeschooled or private schooled American kids, but with sexually abused K'iche babies...sorry, I think I'll pass. Regardless, I'm interested in going through it and getting ideas. These activities are so clever. I WISH they'd work.

Another good book found: no death, no fear by Thich Nhat Hanh. I know what I'll be doing tonight!
