In this Spanish-language adventure, Latino twins Carmen and Carlos are bored and restless from being stuck inside on a rainy day. When the storm passes, they run outside only to find their backyard is completely flooded. What will they do? Parents to the rescue! Carlos and Carmen are friendly and easy to relate to, and children will be drawn to the illustrations, which are bright with rich colors and clear images. The book has a good mix of art and text per page, and the sturdy binding will stand up to punishment. The book features vocabulary that may be advanced for a beginner Spanish reader, but also a short glossary. Part of a four-title set, this is great for readers just entering chapter-book series.
