An award-winning author and a rising star artist have put a festive Latino twist on "The Twelve Days of Christmas," populating it with pinatas in place of partridges, plus "burritos bailando" (dancing donkeys), "lunitas cantando" (singing moons), and much more, all displayed in the most vivid colors imaginable. In this version a little girl receives gifts from a secret "amiga, "whose identity is a sweet surprise at the book's conclusion. There are things to find and count in Spanish on every page, with pronunciations provided right in the pictures and a glossary and music following the story. This joyous fiesta will warm even the coldest of hearts.
A freshly retold animal fable about heroism, hope, and community, from award-winning creators Leah Henderson and Magaly MoralesAcross oceans, lands, and skiesIn whispers, shouts, and in many different languagesthe story of the little hummingbird of the Great Forest can always be heardThe story of the little hummingbird has been told around the world in many forms and across many cultures, believed to have originated among the Indigenous Quecha people of modern-day Ecuador.
