Editorial Reviews

"I enjoyed reading this book and have used it in my classroom. I have read several books by the author and have enjoyed ... every one of them. The pictures are super ... the fact that it has both Spanish and English is helpful for my students as they are learning Spanish. Keep writing books like these, please!"
