Sopa de pepino

(4) K-3 Translated by Antonio Hernandez Madrigal. Illustrated by Craig McFarland Brown. In this counting-book, well-translated into Spanish, groups of insects pitch in to help move a cucumber--then celebrate by eating some cucumber soup (recipe appended). Paragraphs of information about each insect are longer than--and distract from--the actual story. Illustrations that vary the bug's-eye view add drama. Also available in English.
