In these transitional readers, twins Carlos and Carmen Garcia celebrate the Fourth of July, try unsuccessfully to train their cat for a pet show, compromise on a Halloween costume, and go shopping for piqatas. The purposeful but cheery series boasts engaging-enough texts (with a smattering of Spanish words) and slick illustrations that pop with bold colors and vibrant energy. Glos.
