A heartfelt, visually stunning picture book from Caldecott Honor and Robert F. Sibert Medal winner Juana Martinez-Neal illuminates a young girl’s day of play and adventure in the lush rain forest of Peru. Zonia’s home is the Amazon rain forest, where it is always green and full of life. Every morning, the rain forest calls to Zonia, and every morning, she answers. She visits the sloth family, greets the giant anteater, and runs with the speedy jaguar. But one morning, the rain forest calls to her in a troubled voice. How will Zonia answer? Acclaimed author-illustrator Juana Martinez-Neal explores the wonders of the rain forest with Zonia, an Asháninka girl, in her joyful outdoor adventures. The engaging text emphasizes Zonia’s empowering bond with her home, while the illustrations—created on paper made from banana bark—burst with luxuriant greens and delicate details. Illuminating back matter includes a translation of the story in Asháninka, information on the Asháninka community, and resources on the Amazon rain forest and its wildlife.
Lesen ist die Grundlage akademischer Wissenserzeugung und wird an den Hochschulen vorwiegend durch wissenschaftliche Bibliotheken organisiert. Das akademische Lesen zeichnet sich dabei durch spezifische Leistungen und Anforderungen aus, die über die verfügbaren Lesemöglichkeiten, -praktiken und -medien adressiert werden. Obwohl sich die erlernten Lesefähigkeiten, die routinierten Lesepraktiken und etablierten Lesemedien mit der Digitalisierung nachhaltig verändert haben, sind die damit verbundenen Konsequenzen für Studierende, Lehrende und Forschende kaum erforscht. Der Band fragt deshalb in interdisziplinärer Perspektive danach, was wir eigentlich über wissenschaftliche Lesekompetenzen, Lesepraktiken und Bibliotheken im Kontext digitaler Entwicklungen in den letzten Jahren wissen.
