Two snowshoe hares scamper and play under the watchful eyes of a little fox, and a tiny mouse scurries in search of a midnight feast. When the snow clouds disappear, stars light up the sky, followed by the mystical shimmering of northern lights - all framed by the frost on the window.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eJean E.

The bishop is not sure he believes Juan Diego, and asks him to return with a sign that this is true. But in the meantime Juan Diego's uncle falls gravely ill. On his way to find a priest for his uncle, Juan Diego runs past the hill, where the Virgin tells him that his uncle will be well again and to fill his cloak with flowers to show the bishop. When Juan Diego presents the flowers to the bishop, there is a beautiful image of the Virgin on the cloak. Eventually her church is built and the miraculous cloak is hung above the altar for millions of visitors to see.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCorrelates to the Common Core State Standards in English Language Arts:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RI.K.6\t\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eName the author and illustrator of a text and define the role of each in presenting the ideas or information in a text.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RI.2.6\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIdentify the main purpose of a text, including what the author wants to answer, explain, or describe.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RI.3.2\t\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDetermine the main idea of a text; recount the key details and explain how they support the main idea.\u003c\/p\u003e\n","published_at":"2022-03-29T16:14:32-04:00","created_at":"2022-03-29T14:16:34-04:00","vendor":"Groundwood Books Ltd","type":"","tags":["age range 0 - 4","By (author) Serrano Francisco","CC Lit - Informational Text","CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RI.2.6","CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RI.3.2","CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RI.K.6","Groundwood Books","Illustrated by Davalos Felipe","Picture Books","pub date: 2010-11-27"],"price":2295,"price_min":2295,"price_max":2295,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":40232152137787,"title":"hardcover","option1":"hardcover","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"9781554980741","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":true,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"Our Lady of Guadalupe - hardcover","public_title":"hardcover","options":["hardcover"],"price":2295,"weight":517,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":"9781554980741","requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[]}],"images":["\/\/houseofanansi.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/BNCImageAPI_31ae7606-c1a7-4fe8-976b-af145fe57708.jpg?v=1731041911","\/\/houseofanansi.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/BNCImageAPI_af7f02e0-452f-4b76-a121-f0d9dfaedbc7.jpg?v=1648578198","\/\/houseofanansi.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/BNCImageAPI_f93f8a9b-f39b-495f-ad46-73e8d2f492ad.jpg?v=1648578211","\/\/houseofanansi.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/BNCImageAPI_9cbe172a-1517-4413-8544-19d338569a95.jpg?v=1648578224"],"featured_image":"\/\/houseofanansi.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/BNCImageAPI_31ae7606-c1a7-4fe8-976b-af145fe57708.jpg?v=1731041911","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":null,"id":24903052918843,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.735,"height":490,"width":360,"src":"\/\/houseofanansi.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/BNCImageAPI_31ae7606-c1a7-4fe8-976b-af145fe57708.jpg?v=1731041911"},"aspect_ratio":0.735,"height":490,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/houseofanansi.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/BNCImageAPI_31ae7606-c1a7-4fe8-976b-af145fe57708.jpg?v=1731041911","width":360},{"alt":"This image shows a pop-up book in two photographs.
