Comments:
A counting book in bilingual (Spanish & English) format. The language flows with the simplicity of the text and it is obvious that the author is also bilingual in these two languages.
This is a counting book from one to ten using the typical merchandise (chicles, trompos, piñatas,etc.) sold at mercados/markets in Mexico. King-Moreno, the illustrator, uses earthtone colors to represent the ambiente of the Mexican culture. Highly recommended.
