Customer Reviews

Animals at the Farm5
I really liked this book, especially the pictures! This is something that would be great for children to read in order to learn about the different animals that are on a farm. The back of the book has all the animals listed in both spanish and english and the pronunciations of both languages.

Just what I expected5
Simple phrases with both English and Spanish. At the end of the book is a list of animals in both languages and a pronunciation key.

Great Bilingual book5
My son really enjoys this book, He likes all the animals and we make animal noises as we read it which makes him laugh. We are a bilingual family so to find bilingual books is great. We read the book at least 3 times in a row, so we alternate the languages from spanish to english. Also it's a short book so it holds my son's attention span.
