Industry Reviews
PreS-Gr 1 Two sisters romp through a market in Mexico while selecting birthday gifts for their mother. The simple rhyming text pairs the Spanish and English numerals 1-10: "Uno one/ We'll buy Mam a sun/ dos two/ Two doves that say coo-coo..." A Spanish pronunciation guide is included. The beautiful watercolor illustrations do an excellent job of capturing the girls' excitement and of portraying the varied merchandise in the market. However, the heavy, awkward use of shadowing makes the characters' faces unattractive, thus detracting from the otherwise carefree artwork. Moreover, the items to be counted (three bells, six castanets) are often difficult to discern within the scenes, diminishing the title's serviceability as a counting book. Despite these weaknesses, this is a useful tool for teaching children how to count to 10 in Spanish. Denise E. Agosto, Midland County Public Library, TX
