Alberto y Lila

(4) K-3 Translated by Gerardo Gambolini. Illustrated by Els Cools & Oliver Streich. In this Spanish edition of Albert and Lila, Alberto the pig is ostracized when he plays with an older chicken named Lila, then is redeemed when he saves the chickens from a predatory fox. The translation of this text-heavy book is technically correct but feels academic. However, the plot is clever and the illustrations playful.
