Two little words leave much to the imagination in this great book! My two year old excitedly watched as the little girl and her dad go faster and faster, transforming into different animals and traveling through different habitats. For Enzo and I, it was an interactive experience. We talked about the pictures we saw: “¡Qué animal es?” “Va más rápido!” “¡Qué color es?” etc. It is a great way to practice vocabulary and to introduce new vocabulary!
It also provides an opportunity to let the children learn about what animals go fast, go slow, fly in the air and swim in the sea. Kids and parents get to use their imaginations and describe the scenery, the animals, movements and sounds. It was so much fun watching Enzo’s face light up as we turned the pages. I was pleasantly surprised! Whoever knew two words could bring so much fun and unleash the imagination?

I’m always looking for bilingual books to share with kids at school and at the library.
I love using books with action words and we do the actions together during story time.
I’d be happy to add this to my collection and use it as part of a bilingual family story hour.
I think my two-year old daughter would love this book because of the colors and the excitement — if it is repetitive like the title, she will quickly pick that up and repeat the lines as we read. Anything that exposes her more to the Spanish language, is awesome!!
We love all books at our house, especially books in Spanish. Books about animals are definitely a big hit!

I would love to win a book for my grandson. He is still little, but he loves books and we are trying to be bilingual in our home so he won’t have much difficulty with Spanish speakers in our family.

Last year my colleagues and I created a community outreach group (RUBilingual) in the NJ area and we are currently building up a library so we can foster literacy in “Read with your son/daughter in Spanish” sessions! This book would be a great addition to our collection

My son loves her other books… the fact that it is about animals makes the book even more appealing, as he loves looking at animal pictures!
I know my oldest daughter would enjoy this book because she’s just started to understand some Spanish and I think this would help boost her knowledge of the language
