This board book version of the perennially popular preschool classic fails in many respects. First is the unfortunate translation of "boom boom" as "bum bum." Second is the fact that the Spanish alphabet's double l and q are not included here, diminishing the book's usefulness for Spanish-speaking children. Finally, as with Chicka Chicka ABC it ends in the middle of the original story.

A le dijo a B,
y B le dijo a C,
--Nos vemos en la copa del cocotero--

So begins the lively alphabet rhyme that children and their parents will love to recite. Bill Martin Jr and John Archambault's rhythmic chant and Caldecott Honor illustrator Lois Ehlert's bold, cheerful art have made Chicka Chicka Boom Boom a favorite for over twenty years! Now available for the first time as a sweet board book edition in Spanish, it will surely delight a new group of Chicka Chicka fans.
