 | Huevos verdes con jamón by Dr. Seuss
Buy new: $9.95 / Used from: $3.94 The best Dr. Seuss translation. If you want to introduce your child to a little Spanish this is a great choice.
|
 | More Spaghetti, I Say: Quiero Mas Fideos! by Rita Golden Gelman
Buy new: $3.99 / Used from: $0.01 Cute, simple story for very young children, equally good in Spanish or English. If your child liked Huevos Verdes con Jamon, you might want to try this next.
|
 | El Lorax by Dr. Seuss
Buy new: $10.17 / Used from: $6.12 Beautifully translated, but my son's not ready for it in Spanish , though he loves the English version. All the made-up Seussian words were apparently too much. I'll try again when he's older.

 | Listening Walk, The (Spanish edition): Los sonidos a mi alrededor by Paul Showers
Buy used from: $8.48 An unjustly obscure classic (somewhat in the mode of Dr. Seuss' "Mr Brown Can Moo"), wonderfully rendered into Spanish.
|
 | Tu mama es una llama? (Spanish Edition) by Deborah Guarino
Buy new: $12.48 / Used from: $32.07 Aida Marcuse has translated hundreds of children's books, often uncredited.
|
 | La oruga muy hambrienta: Board Book (Spanish Edition) by Eric Carle
Buy new: $7.91 / Used from: $5.58 Another brilliant, although uncredited, Marcuse translation. Not only are her translations excellent, but she consistently chooses wonderful books to translate.
|
 | Oh, cuan lejos llegaras! / Oh, the Places You'll Go! (Spanish Edition) by Dr. Seuss
Buy new: $28.10 / Used from: $29.56 One of Chris's favorites right now, he likes for me to read the English and Spanish versions back to back. He didn't really like it before, though; this is probably too abstract for most preschoolers
|
 | El conejito andarín by Margaret Wise Brown
Buy used from: $0.01 A classic of course, and perfectly translated. Too easy a translation for such a great translator, though.
|
 | El Gran Granero Rojo by Margaret Wise Brown
Buy new: $7.99 / Used from: $3.10 Charming and very simple--my son is now past this in English, but still enjoys it in Spanish. If your child's progressed further in one language, he may want different levels of books.

Listmania!
