Translated by Aída E. Marcuse.
This bilingual edition describes, in English and Spanish, the work of guardian dogs, beginning with their early socialization as "guardian puppies." Introduced to "their sheep" at a very young age, the dogs grow up alongside livestock and learn to protect the flock from predators. Vivid photographs capture different stages of the process.

Translated by Aída E. Marcuse.
This bilingual book shows young children how to recognize patterns in the natural world around them. Using simple words and phrases and a repetitive language structure, the text teaches what patterns are and where to look for them. The vibrant photographs are well suited to the subject matter.

This Spanish edition of The Runaway Bunny is adequate but contains unnecessarily difficult vocabulary. And thankfully, this board book doesn't cut any of the original illustrations or shorten the length of the text.
