Gr 1-3–This Spanish translation of the Caldecott Honor title is just as stunning. Two young travelers set out on a walk to explore nature with a fresh and wonder-filled perspective. They ask questions like “Is the ground the skin of the earth?” and “Are roots the feet of plants?” The book’s collage illustrations, unchanged from the original, are beautiful and vivid, easily drawing in readers and encouraging them to explore the natural wonders that exist all around us. The lyrical Spanish text is spare and leaves space for kids to ponder as they examine the intricate art.
VERDICT Engaging. A good choice where the English edition is popular.
