Say Bravo to Hola!

Do you need a book that will delight children from 5 to 13? "Say Hola! to Spanish" did exactly that for my students, from kindergarten through grade 8 - er, ocho. Children of all ages (and that includes this middle-aged teacher of Spanish) will delight to the likes of the following: "Your hair is your pelo, your nose is nariz. Your grandmother's pelo is probably gris." "Bread is called pan and cheeses are quesos. That's what we eat, but perros eat huesos." Learning foreign words could not be more fun!

Ever Heard A Toddler Say "Hola!"?

This is a wonderful book for any bi-lingual (English/Spanish) parent wanting to expose their child to the Spanish language in a fun, gentle format. My daughter asks for "Hola" to be read to her and it is written in such a way that non-Spanish speakers (like the baby sitter, Grandma, Daddy, etc.) can read and correctly pronounce each Spanish word. I would highly recommend this for any child's book collection.

Say Hola to Spanish!

This is the cutest book ever! In my high school Spanish class our teacher read it to us, and we all loved it so much that a few of us went out and bought it ourselves. It is my new favorite children's book. It has bright pictures that are really cute. They have their own style. There are cacti with hats, and ufos, in random places, it's so adorable. It also has a very catchy rhyme pattern, and it is a great way to introduce children to Spanish. I give this book my highest praise!

Say Hola to Spanish

I found this book in the library and LOVED it for my 3 yr old. I'm buying this book and "...Otra Vez" in paperback for him. He loves it and since I'd really like to start him learning a second language early, this is perfect! The mixture of English and Spanish in rhyme makes it easy to understand and fun to read.

Say Hola to this great book!

This book is an excellent introduction to spanish for kids. It intersperses english and spanish, so kids will stay "tuned in" to the book. The easy rhymes help hids learn and remember the spanish words, and the silly illustrations are engaging and reinforce the text. It's fantastic!
