An excellent translation of a classic children's book
I really loved the translation of this classic children's book and read it to my daughters often. The translator was able to capture the sense of the story and make it very readable and enjoyable in Spanish. An excellent goodnight story for anyone reading in Spanish to their little ones!

A wonderful bedtime book
As American of Cuban descent, it is very important to me that my son learn Spanish. Teresa Mlawer did an excellent job with the translation. She was able to keep the spirit and flow of the original text, although she had to change a couple of things here and there and lose some of the rhyming, which is to be expected. It still has the same soothing musicality of the original, which makes it a great book to read aloud. I love reading this to my 8 month old son as part of our bedtime ritual. And no matter how fussy he's been before I start, he always settles down when he hears the first line.
