Review by School Library Journal Review

Toddler-PreS-The classic picture book is now available as a bilingual board book. This much-needed adaptation is a great size and holds just as much appeal in this smaller format. The English text is at the top of each line, with the Spanish text directly underneath it. This will be a perfect storytime book for choral reading and one-on-one use at home. © Copyright 2017.

Review by Horn Book Review

In this bilingual edition, Crews's clean design leaves plenty of room for the addition of well-translated Spanish phrases alongside the original English. The result is right on track, with the Spanish text looking as if it were always there. From HORN BOOK Spring 2004, (c) Copyright 2010.
