With Love from Spain, Melanie Martin

Series fans can discover the latest doings of favorite characters in a number of spring novels. The globetrotter returns to Europe in With Love from Spain, Melanie Martin by Carol Weston, the third of the heroine's diary-style, first-person adventures. Beyond Melanie's crush on a young Spaniard and her mother meeting up with an old flame, the book features a healthy amount of Spanish art, history and vocabulary, translated quasi-phonetically by the spunky narrator, from ""toreros (Tore Air Ohs)"" to ""caballero (Cob Eye Yair Oh).""
