My daughter received this book for her sixth birthday. What a wonderful gift. She had expressed an interest in learning Spanish and this book was a wonderful way to begin that journey. No one in our home speaks Spanish so it was very important that the book come with a CD recorded by a native speaker, that the illustrations be intriguing to a young child, and that the vocabulary progress but not too quickly and in a manner interesting to a young child. This book/CD fulfilled all those requirements and more. My daughter loves it. And thanks to Ana Lomba's other materials, my daughter was able to read it aloud before she ever heard the CD (but the CD was good for me to check that she was pronouncing words correctly). Bravo!
Perfect beginner Spanish book for kids and adults!!!!

I can't say enough good things about Ana Lomba's materials! As a Spanish teacher to children ages 2 to 6, I love that her materials are always bilingual, so that parents are not lost when they read with their child at home. She also reads the book for you in Spanish on the CD provided (English reading is on the CD as well). The illustrations are delightful and engaging. My daughter, who is growing up biligual (English/Spanish), enjoys this book a lot. In fact, when I first bought it, she asked me to read it at least once a day, and half of the time twice a day for about a week and a half when she began speaking three times as much Spanish as she had before! I can't tell you how exciting that was! Reading is magical! If you want to increase your Spanish language gains for you and your child, read LOTS of great books like Ana's in Spanish together, at least 15-30 minutes a day! You'll be pleasantly surprised by the results!
Another excellent teaching tool from Ana Lomba!

I really enjoy all of Ms. Lomba's products, and this is no different. My three to five year old class enjoys hearing this, and I recommend it to parents when they ask what they can do at home to supplement learning. I usually teach the words first (which are nicely laid out with colorful pictures on a single page) and then read the story. A lot of the words are already familiar to my students, but I think this could be a good introduction to a child as well. We often do hands-on activities in my classes and in my curriculum, so it's nice for the student to have some down time and just listen and look at the pictures as they absorb an already familiar story. Great job on the CD too! Sra. Gose Author of Flip Flop Spanish: Ages 3-5: Level 1 & Flip Flop Spanish: Ages 3-5: Level 2

All Ana Lomba's materails are A++++++++ Another fun and interactive learning tool and Another must have if you want to teach and learn Spanish. P.S. My Children love the different voices, especially the wolf!

Both Spanish and English --it's so helpful to see it all right there, all translated carefully --plus the Audio CD makes the kids excited.
