This Spanish-language version of Ten Black Dots (first published in 1968) is a model example of how a Spanish translation should be done. The text does not try to strain for a literal translation; as a result it reads aloud beautifully and actually makes sense in Spanish. Crews's striking graphics, prominently incorporating bold, black dots into simply composed scenes, remain fresh.
