Migratory Birds Around Me: St. Martin Nature Coloring Book and Journal<\/h4>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nBirds are everywhere on St. Martin. There are birds on every beach, pond and hill, and in every neighborhood on the island. Wherever you are on St. Martin, you can find a bird. From season to season, you might notice how the birds change. We start hearing the loud calls of the Laughing Gull in April, and they go away in October. Thousands of small, brown shorebirds flock to our beaches and ponds in late summer. They stay for the winter, but leave in spring. These birds are some of our migratory birds. Our migratory birds spend part of the year here and part of the year somewhere else. They travel thousands of miles between North America, South America and the Caribbean. These special birds make amazing journeys. You can see these birds in the wild on our island. You can bring this book with you when you go to find them.<\/p>\n

\nSt. Martin is full of amazing animals and plants. Some of them live only on St. Martin. They don\u2019t live anywhere else in the world! Other animals and plants live only in our part of the Caribbean. That makes them special. We are lucky that we are able to see them. Scientists use the word \u201cendemic\u201d for animals and plants that live only in a certain place. Something is endemic to St. Martin if it lives only on our island. A plant or animal can also be endemic to just a few islands, or just our part of the Caribbean, the Lesser Antilles. This book is full of things that live only on St. Martin, or only in our part of the Caribbean. Every time you see them, you know you live somewhere special and unique!<\/p>\n

Saint-Martin est une \u00eele pleine de plantes et d\u2019animaux formidables. Certains d\u2019entre eux vivent uniquement sur cette \u00eele. Ils ne vivent nulle part ailleurs dans le monde ! D\u2019autres animaux et plantes ne vivent que dans notre partie des Cara\u00efbes. Cela les rend sp\u00e9ciaux. Nous avons de la chance de pouvoir les voir. Les scientifiques utilisent le mot \u00ab end\u00e9mique \u00bb pour d\u00e9signer les animaux et les plantes qui vivent uniquement \u00e0 un certain endroit. Un animal ou une plante est end\u00e9mique \u00e0 Saint- Martin s\u2019il ne vit que sur notre \u00eele.

Rising Spirit: The Autobiography of Lady Ruby Bute<\/h4>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nLady Ruby Bute is a cultural figure without peer on St. Martin. She is a painter, poet, and storyteller. In this book, Ruby tells her story, but also the story of St. Martin, and the generations of St. Martin people who made the island what it is today. Vibrant tales of life in The Village in Aruba are underscored by sacrifices and sadness. A homecoming to St. Martin brings a new landscape and a rapidly changing island. There are struggles and conflicts, but also opportunities and new friends. She grows as an artist and poet, while also giving back to her island. A towering cultural icon, she continues to share her art, her voice, and her island with the world.<\/p>\n
