(4) K-3 Translated by Ariel Almohar. Illustrated by Cristina Kadmon. After an exciting day playing with his friends, little turtle Sebastián cuddles up with his father and tells him what he wants to be when he grows up: firefighter, pirate, diver, etc. His father listens lovingly, then tells him that he always wanted to grow up to be a father of a son like Sebastián. In this Spanish edition of When I Grow Up, sweet illustrations match the tone of the nurturing if sentimental bedtime story.

(4) K-3 Translated by Ariel Almohar. In this Spanish rendition of Nobody Likes Me! the translation is accurate but fails to come to life--perhaps the fault of the original repetitive text. The strong illustrations add interest to this story of a dog who mistakenly assumes that the other animals in the neighborhood don't like him.
