One Saturday at the market, a little boy sees someone who makes him want to turn away. His father's gentle response changes the way his son sees the world; and the people in it.
The Market / El Mercado is a warm, bilingual picture book that teaches young children one of the most important lessons of all: everyone has a heart, and every heart deserves to be seen.
Written in both English and Spanish on every page, this book is perfect for bilingual families, English-speaking families introducing Spanish, and Spanish-speaking families sharing their language with the next generation.
What's inside:- A gentle, honest story about empathy, dignity, and kindness toward those who are different from us
- Beautiful full-color illustrations set in a warm Caribbean market
- Side-by-side English and Spanish text on every page
- A quiet, powerful message about seeing the humanity in every person
- Perfect for shared reading with children ages 3 to 5
