El gato Leo, the naughty cat who only speaks Spanish, is off on a skateboarding adventure, and he wants young English-speaking readers to come along. His trip takes him, with his mouse pal, through village and forest, and in one sequence he tumbles head over heels. Lift-up flaps make the learning process fun. Included are tips for good ways to use the book, a vocabulary list, and an additional language game. Children will love learning their first Spanish words and phrases with Leo.

Editorial Reviews
Review
"Look! There's Leo. Let's talk to him. But he only speaks Spanish, so we'll talk to him in Spanish. Hola. Hello" From the book; 'Gale's collage and mixed-media illustrations, however, buoy up the volume considerably. Incorporating everything from Russian invoices to a canine parody of van Ecyk's The Arnolfini Wedding, they possess a cheeky elan' Publishers Weekly review of 'All my own Teeth'"
