This is a non-fiction book like no other, because it is a flip book in two languages. Children can read THE CLOWNFISH in English or flip the book over to enjoy EL PEZ PAYASO in Spanish. Children will no longer be confused by having both translations on the same page. Tina Liccioni has over 10 years of experience teaching regular education, English as a Second Language, and Bilingual children at the elementary level. She believes children prefer non-fiction books with vibrant, real photographs, like the ones in this book. After researching, she found that there is not a big selection of non-fiction books to choose from for young readers, and even fewer that are bilingual. THE CLOWNFISH/EL PEZ PAYASO has simple sentences for beginning readers, ages 4-8. Since it is factual, even older children can learn about the clownfish's colorful appearance, habitat, eggs, diet and size. This book is highly recommended for teachers, librarians, and parents. Share it with chldren so that they may develop a love for reading at an early age and become stronger in two languages. Este es un libro como ning
