The pictures are cute, but the translations are quite poor. For example: "Hold on tight!" translates to "Da un pasito!" If you and your child are both bilingual this can be a fun book to sing together. If you want a book with accurate translations to help your child learn a second language (as I was hoping for) then this is not the book for you.
There are lots of mistakes in translation in this book. I do not recommend buying this. I was really disappointed but didnt want to spend the energy to return it.
This is a simple book but my baby loves it even at 8 mo. We can sing and look at pictures together. Easy read and fun to do. I loke that there are a variety of ethnicities represented int he drawings.
Okay, I admit it. I don't speak Spanish very well. So when I want to read to my granddaughter, who does, I am excited to have a little help in the form of a cute board book. This one is lovely, and makes my granddaughter "bien contento". The pictures are light-hearted and appealing. If you buy this, expect to read/sing it many, many times!
My granddaughter is a year old and lives in Mexico with her American mom and Mexican father. This book (as well as other bilingual books) gives me, as well as her abuelitos, the ability to become bilingual with our grandchild!
I suppose I should have read the individual reviews instead of solely looking at the overall rating. The translations are very poor...For example, "Rattle & Shake!" is translated as "move", "Push the blocks!" as "Play this way" (with a picture of a child pushing blocks), "Hold on tight!" as "take a step", and so on. The only thing I can figure is that whoever translated was not reading the English text, but instead going by what was represented in the illustrations.
Great book for young children and a wonderful learning tool. My grand-daughter is eight months old and already understands both languages. These books will help her start reading in both languages as well. The nursery rhyme aspect of these books are awesome as well.
This book is very nice but SUPER Small! I had the head/shoulders/knees/ toes book and it was considerably larger- this one is only about 3" x 3" and it is a bit challenging to hold with my child to read. But- the book is very helpful and I recommend purchasing.
