PreS-Gr 2—Singing along to books encourages early literacy skills in a way that simply reading text cannot. This bilingual series on six common vehicles and machines provides readers with a sound-filled reading experience and includes an optional musical sing-along element that can be accessed online. English and Spanish text appear on separate pages, punctuated by vibrant, playful illustrations that mimic each machine's sound. New vocabulary terms are bolded throughout and reviewed in a glossary at the end of each book. Lyrics in both English and Spanish are provided and correspond to the online resource. An instrumental-only version is provided for additional flexibility. Also included: tips for building early literacy at home and questions for comprehension. VERDICT An easy and fun way to incorporate singing into classroom and library read-alouds; consider for large collections or where multimedia titles are in demand.
