Leyendo with lizeth!

Time for bed, Written by Mem Fox and Illustrated by Jane Dyer.  It's time for bed, little foal, little foal,  I'll whisper a secret, but don't tell a soul.  I  believe I have read this book more than a hundred times, and every time I read I enjoy it more and more. Time for bed is a picture book perfectly combined with incredible pictures of animals. Each page has beautiful prose, matching the words with each other to create delightful poetry. The book includes important information about animals and how we call animals when they are babies,  reinforcing on kids new vocabulary and new expressions.

A perfect book to read for kids, especially at an early age.     Soup for breakfast, Written & Illustrated by Calef Brown.

After years she got married and moved to Mexico, leaving the dictatorship of Fidel Castro. Celia c...
