Isabel’s passion for colors helps her overcome the fear on her first day of school where everyone speaks English. Fortunately, when the teacher says, “It’s coloring time!” she can hear the sounds of the Spanish word “colorear." This empowering story will resonate with talkers and pre-readers eager to discuss jitters of being new to school, especially when you don’t understand the language. Bilingual text with the use of boldface print and colors that coordinate with the name of each color will foster the “Notice print all around you” skill." The Spanish-English glossary in the end of the book will reinforce a new vocabulary. Show less
