Papá And Me. By Arthur Dorros and Illustrated By Rudy Gutierrez. ISBN978-0-060-58156-5. Pura Belpré Honor Book and ALA Notable Children’s Book. Ages 3-7
Papá And Me is a great story about a boy and his father and how they spend the day together. A notable mention is the father only speaks Spanish, while the son is bilingual. Told mostly in English there are also Spanish beginning vocab words that have no transitions through out the story. Don't worry it is easy to understand what they mean.
The theme of this book is that of love. Through the amazing illustrations we see the love that the father and son have for one another. The swirling colors bring the pages and characters to life. The illustrations turn an ordinary day in to one of magic and adventure.
This is a great book for young children to learn about other languages.
