This review is from: El Gran Granero Rojo (Board book)
This beautiful book gently describes all the action on a farm from sunrise to sunset. It tells the story of the various animals on the farm. The illustrations are adorable and the words gentle and soothing. It is good exposure to animals and their noises. I have the Spanish, board book edition. It has withstood lots of abuse and it still one of our favorites.

4.0 out of 5 stars Un libro bueno por leyendo en voz alta, June 25, 2004
This translation is not the best one I've used but works well for younger crowds. It rhymes on some pages but not all which makes for a somewhat awkward read the first time around. With a little practice, though, the book is wonderful to use in a Spanish language storytime. The story is very simple as are the pictures so it could be used for toddler and preschool age groups. The book would also be good for those just starting to read in Spanish since many of the words are basic and the text is somewhat sparse.

My kids and I love this book. The translation is so well done that it feels like it was originally written in Spanish. The book is very poetic with beautiful rimes, great selection of words and a good story - a pleasure to read. I'm a native Spanish speaker, and I always looking for good Spanish books to read with my kids.

I bought this book for myself because I am learning Spanish. I have enjoyed it immensely as have my little sisters. The book is about a day at the farm. There are only animals in the well done art. I'd sure recommend this book to anyone trying to learn Spanish.

5.0 out of 5 stars The life of farm animals, April 13, 2010
This book depicts the life of animals on the farm. It mentions children playing, but doesn't show any human interaction. Writing with rhyming verse, it describes the friendship of the various animals and how they spend their day. As it transitions into night, one feels the peace of the rural barn and the quiet night. It's a good book to read to children before bed.

5.0 out of 5 stars My 18 month old loves it!, February 2, 2008
I got this for my son at 9 months but he didn't get into it until recently. He loves the illustrations and the animal sounds in the text. Next best thing to Buenas Noches Luna

This review is from: El Gran Granero Rojo (Board book)
Beautifully illustrated and cleverly translated with Spanish text that flows and rhymes. Unfortunately this means that some difficult words were chosen so your kids will have to learn more vocabulary. So far my 11-month old son has not been captivated by the book, maybe in a few months this will change.
