Eight bedtime stories, printed side by side: English on the left-hand page, Spanish on the right, the same paragraphs on both.
Fiona Orchard is nine, lives in Sydney, and argues with her parents most days. Why can't she watch TV? Why can't she go trick-or-treating? Why does the eagle have to kill the rabbit?
Then she takes a nap, and in her dreams she can go anywhere. She talks a red dragon out of a hatred nobody can remember starting. She shows Ptolemy what the solar system looks like from above it. She meets Einstein in Bern in 1905, back when nobody cared what he thought. She visits a world where nothing bad ever happens, and works out what it costs.
Because every spread carries the same paragraphs in both languages, a reader can follow one column and glance across whenever a sentence stops making sense. No glossary, no exercises, no vocabulary lists - just the same story, twice, within reach.
For children reading on their own from about seven, and for families raising children in two languages.
Ocho cuentos para antes de dormir, impresos uno junto al otro: el inglés en la página izquierda, el español en la derecha, los mismos párrafos en ambas.
Fiona Orchard tiene nueve años, vive en Sydney y casi todos los dÃas discute con sus padres. Por qué no puede ver la tele? Por qué no puede salir a pedir dulces? Por qué el águila tiene que matar al conejo?
Entonces se echa una siesta, y en sus sueños puede ir a donde quiera. Convence a un dragón rojo de abandonar un odio que ya nadie recuerda por qué empezó. Le muestra a Ptolomeo cómo se ve el sistema solar desde arriba. Conoce a Einstein en Berna en 1905, cuando a nadie le importaba lo que pensaba. Visita un mundo donde nunca pasa nada malo y descubre lo que cuesta.
Como cada doble página lleva los mismos párrafos en los dos idiomas, se puede seguir una columna y mirar la otra cada vez que una frase deja de entenderse. Sin glosario, sin ejercicios, sin listas de vocabulario: solo la misma historia, dos veces, al alcance de la mano.
Para leer solos a partir de los siete años, y para familias que crÃan a sus hijos en dos idiomas.
