Animal Talk: Mexican Folk Art Animal Sounds in English and Spanish (First Concepts in Mexican Folk Art) - Hardcover
Did you know that animals that live in one country don't always talk the same language as animals from somewhere else? Take a rooster, for instance. In English-speaking countries, he says cock-a-doodle-doo when he has a notion to announce himself or to greet the dawn. But in Spanish-speaking countries, he says ki-kiri-ki. Emerging readers will delight in identifying the animals depicted on each new page. And the bilingual text invites parent and child into an interactive and playful reading experience for acting out animal sounds in English and Spanish.
Craftsman Rubí Fuentes and Efraín Broa from the Mexican state of Oaxaca fill the pages of Animal Talk with vibrant, wildly imaginative figures of familiar animals.
Animal Talk is the fifth book in Cynthia Weill's charming First Concepts in Mexican Folk Art series. It is her passion to promote the work of artisans from around the world through early concept books.

From School Library Journal:
PreS-K—Looking for a fun and attractive picture book for bilingual storytime? Oaxacan wood sculptures in this work will captivate young readers with colorful images and simple vocabulary in English and Spanish. For example, "What do horses say? NEIGH NEIGH./¿Qué dicen los caballos? JIII JIII." Children will enjoy making 15 various animal sounds in both languages. Roosters, kitties, fish, goats, cows, and owls are among the featured animals. A pronunciation guide on the last page will prove to be helpful. The folk art provides vibrant colors seen in Mexico. Pair with Lois Ehlert's Rrralph or Jules Feiffer's Bark, George for a fantastic time. VERDICT This interactive picture book is sure to be a young crowd-pleaser and storytime favorite.—Martha Rico, El Paso ISD, TX
