¡Sigamos Subiendo!: (Spanish Edition)

by Baptiste Paul (Author) Jacqueline Alcántara (Illustrator)

Reading Level: K − 1st Grade

Un padre quiere pasar el día viendo fútbol en la tele, pero su hija le recuerda que ha prometido subir con ella en una caminata-hasta la cima. A medida que los dos suben, el entusiasmo de la niña se vuelve contagioso. Abundan los contratiempos y las sorpresas pero también las vistas impresionantes.

Este divertido cuento de Baptiste Paul y Jacqueline Alcántara --con ilustraciones vibrantes y una pizca de palabras criollas que provienen directamente de las montañas Pitons-- captura la maravilla del camino, la relación especial entre un padre y su hija y el poder de una experiencia compartida.

Una serie de animales al final del libro invitan a que los lectores hagan sus propios descubrimientos.
