Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Bilingual educator/parent/abuelaMy Food/Mi Comida: This board book offers poor translation and does not include food items that are a natural part of Hispanic children's diet. I do not recommend this book for pre-schoolers, parents to read to children, or for pre-school teachers to use at pre-school. Rating: - Unclear pictures, Odd ChoicesEmberley has some odd pictures making this book a bit useless. Soup looks like a cheese wheel. Other food items like berries are recognizable, but not as clear as I feel they should be. Also, some items are a bit odd - like a radish - what child is eating radishes on a regular basis? There are alot of better choices for a child's book. I would likely not buy her books again. Rating:  - Great as a supplement or reviewThis brightly colored book is great to use as an addition to a Spanish curriculum like the workbook Flip Flop Spanish. The sturdy pages continue to wow my classes of ages 3 all the way to 12 years old. If you'd like to introduce your child to Spanish, I might choose an animal, colors, or shapes book before this one. The changes in words based on region, as another reviewer stated, are hard to get around - the problems she had with the words are less common where we live - so I think ... Read More Rating: - Some issues with some of the Spanish WordsAs a native Spanish speaker, it is very important for me that my son learn Spanish. My son loves all of the books in this series, but this one causes me a few problems. Part of the problem is the Spanish words used (which is an issue for my dialect). For example, "bananas" is translated as "las bananas" instead of "los platanos" and peas are translated as "las guisantes" instead of "los chicharros" and "broccolli" is "el brecol" instead of "el broculi" (sorry my keyboard is not set to do accents). ... Read More Rating: - Basic, brief intro to SpanishI wanted to introduce Spanish to my infant son so I bought this and "Mi Ropa/My Clothes" by the same author. I like this one the best. Both have very simple pictures labeled with the English and Spanish word. My son is 5 months old and seems to enjoy the pictures.
