Historias en verso. ¨La chancha paseandera¨ es una chancha negra que se lustra los tacos y se pinta la trompa para salir de paseo con sus tres chanchitos... En ¨El beso volador¨ un pájaro que volaba muy bajito levantó del suelo a un beso desmemoriado y lo convirtió en otro pajarito. Y allí está, solito en su nido.

English Description:

Stories in verse ¨La chancha paseoandera¨ is a black pig that shines its heels and paints its trunk to go out for a walk with its three little pigs... In ¨El Beso Volante¨ a bird that flew very low lifted a forgetful kiss from the ground and turned him into another little bird. And there it is, alone in its nest.

Teacher Comments: "Easy reading book, ideal for young readers, concepts are clear and invite the reader to imagine and create how the story ends. I like the fact that the book has very simple illustrations that encourage young students to draw. The rhyming words are simple and easy to understand as well as funny. I really like the gigantic question mark. As a teacher I always make it so special when I share that we used two question marks in Spanish. The vocabulary is very simple and extended, perfect for preschool children, especially for non native speakers."
