Synopsis
A blue backpack. Una mochila azul.
Empty!
A brother and sister, un hermano y una hermana, and their little bear, un osito.
Sleepy!
But there are so many things to gather — and so much to be done!
Come join the fun — in English and Spanish — and make an ordinary afternoon extraordinary.
Publishers Weekly
What they did for counting in the bilingual Fiesta!, author Ginger Foglesong Guy and artist Ren King Moreno now do for colors in Siesta. A brother and sister introduce the Spanish words for colors using everyday objects: "Mi mochila azul. My blue backpack." Velvety pastels, watercolors and pencils in a palette reminiscent of Guatamalan fabrics, invite readers into the siblings' activities. Copyright 2005 Reed Business Information.
