Publisher's Weekly Review

A small child sits on a sled, bundled in an orange parka, while a slightly bigger child (perhaps a sibling) kneels to help tie a scarf. The gesture is infused with warmth, and a similar generosity pervades the pages of this appealing Spanish-English picture book focused on seasonal words. Readers follow the two brown-skinned children through Moreno's sunny pastel illustrations as they sled, splash in puddles, chase fireflies, and pick apples. English words appearing below their Spanish words to indicate the seasons, the months, and the weather: "Fresco. Neblina. Viento./ Cool. Fog. Wind." And the simple refrain "Días y días y días./ Days and days and days" appears throughout, introducing the months that comprise each season. A visual glossary offers additional vocabulary for seasonally appropriate clothing and accessories. Simple, effective, and charming. Ages 3--8. (Aug.)
