Common greetings, sayings, affections, and expressions are presented with simple lyrical definitions: "Please / A magic key / that opens most doors"; "Rest in peace / For eyes that have / closed forever"; "I'm sorry / I'm so sad that I hurt you." Captivating mixed-media collages add childlike authenticity to this primer and make the concepts more kid-friendly.

A wolf in doctor's clothing is our guide for an apple's journey through the digestive system. The tone is jocular and the hip illustrations reflect the text's humor, but the design of the small pages is chaotic, making it difficult to follow the English and Spanish texts. A better organized and more in-depth scoop is Susan Goodman's The Truth About Poop.
