La rana en el estanque (Frog in the Pond)

Life with a frog in a pond where the sun is abundant and lily pads offer a place to sit! Focus is on other animals in the pond, dragonflies the frog chases to eat, how the frogĀ inflates its throat to croak, and stretches its legs to move quickly. No English translation. Book begins with a 2-page chart that lists vocabulary and accompanying photos, allowing the serious non-Spanish speaking scholar to make a text to picture connection, and figure out, on a basic level, what the story is saying. Also, the rebuses interspersed with text on each page, would allow a Spanish speaking student who is an emergent reader, to decode and understand the information. Glossary (Spanish) Reinforced binding. No A.R. test located. Bright, colorful full-page photos add to the appeal of this basic reader.
