This review is from: Un Nino Dios/One Baby Jesus (Paperback)

My church used this book on a short term mission trip to Rancho de Sus Niños in Mexico. Most (all but one) of the group spoke only English while most of the children speak only Spanish or a few words in English. We used this book to put on a puppet show. The English part allowed our church members to understand the book so as to make the puppet show match the words. The Spanish speaker in the group read the book aloud to the children and the rest of the team acted it out with a few cute twists. The show went over well both times it was performed. Having a simple, bilingual story to follow helped greatly. The kids appreciated it and so did the English speaking mission team.

This review is from: Un Nino Dios/One Baby Jesus (Paperback)

This book fills a void for Spanish/ English readers. I teach in a religious school and the students want to learn more about Christianity. This book allows them to have a book in Spanish and English about Jesus.
