Mr and Mrs Bunny have always wanted a little baby bunny. When they
finally have a special one called Miffy all of their friends cannot
wait to meet her. Award-winning UK poet, Tony Mitton, has worked
closely with Dick Bruna's Dutch publisher to create new
translations for the classic Miffy stories that are true to the
books' original voice, and yet have a contemporary feel to the
language that makes them appealing to the modern young audience.
The translations beautifully convey the warmth and friendliness of
the original Dutch whilst maintaining a style that is inimitably
Miffy.

Join Jose as he trains his new dog in this bilingual easy reader!
Jose loves his family: his Papi, Mami, and little sister, Sofi. But
something is missing-he dreams of having a dog, un perro of his
own. Finally Jose gets to pick el perro perfecto, the perfect dog,
from a shelter. But when he tries out commands like "!Sientate!"
(sit) and "!Echate!" (lie down), his new pet simply tilts his head
to the side in confusion. Then he realizes that the dog does
understand commands-he just doesn't understand Spanish! Follow
along as Jose teaches su perro inteligente some new words en
espanol. This early reader, co-written by notable Broadway producer
Susan Rose and children's book author Silvia Lopez, is the perfect
introduction for English-speaking children who have just begun
learning Spanish. The inclusion of the Spanish/English translations
at the end of the book also makes it an excellent teaching tool.
Exciting, easy-to-read books are the stepping stone a young reader
needs to bridge the gap between being a beginner and being fluent.
