Editorial Reviews

04/01/2021

K-Gr 2—Dragons and unicorns are presented in this hi-lo series. While the illustrations are vibrant and exciting, the small text and varying font styles detract from this series' appeal. Each spread is a little different: some pages offer only pictures, while others feature multiple illustrations, blocks of text, and captions, which some readers may find distracting. Still, the mixture of short and long sections of text may help some readers develop confidence while enjoying adventurous characters. VERDICT Those searching for a Spanish series about mythical creatures should look elsewhere.
