Animal Talk: Mexican Folk Art Animal Sounds in English and Spanish (First Concepts in Mexican Folk Art) - Hardcover
A beautiful, playful, child-centric approach to language learning and if it spawns conversations about dialects, so much the better.” Kirkus
This interactive picture book is sure to be a young crowd-pleaser and storytime favorite.” School Library Journal
Rubí Fuentes is the daughter and apprentice of a famous Oaxacan woodcarver. Oddly, she met Efraín Broa in Atlanta, GA, during a demonstration of her technique. They fell in love and returned to Oaxaca where she taught her new husband the art of carving. It took two years of patient work to fill these pages with vibrant, wildly imaginative figures of familiar animals.

From School Library Journal:
Toddler-PreS—This bilingual concept book series has been reissued into a board book format that will be even more appealing to little ones. While Opuestos (about opposites) and Colores de la vida (about colors) feature only one or two words on each, Animal Talk (about animal sounds) and Count Me In! (about numbers) have longer narratives and might even be used during baby storytime. Each entry has either ceramic or wood sculptures created by Oaxacan folk artists that elevate these works above most bilingual concept books. The intricately crafted figures jump off bright, vibrant background colors in electric pinks, yellows, blues, and greens. Their expressive faces will elicit giggles from both tots and their grown-ups. Must-have selections for all bilingual collections.
