SP PreS-Gr 1 —These four Spanish-language titles in the "&1;Me gusta leer!" series are full of fun, friendship, and laughs. In &1;Yo tambi&3;n!, Oso and Ardilla enjoy snow shoveling, building a snowman, skating, and much more, with Oso exclaiming his feelings and Ardilla often agreeing with a "&1;Yo tambi&3;n!," In Los gatos y el pastel, two cats find a fallen cake and begin to argue about who it belongs to when a fox stumbles upon them. The fox eats the cake, claiming that it will keep them from arguing, and the cats are left without any cake at all, or are they? In Me gusta mi carro, readers will have a blast seeing the different animal characters and the unique cars each of them drive. And in Rana y la pelota, readers will enjoy seeing Rana and the events that ensue after he borrows a spellbook from the library. Each title has short phrases or sentences in Spanish, often using repetition that will help children who are beginning to read. Illustrations for each volume pair well with text and story, such as the use of softer tones to depict the snowy outdoors in &1;Yo tambi&3;n! and the bright colors that pop in each spread of Me gusta mi carro. These definitely will be read more than once. VERDICT These Spanish-language titles are perfect for school and public library early reader collections.—Selenia Paz
