PreS-Gr 2-Instead of a story, this book presents a series of illustrations of children enjoying a baseball game. Individual words key in on the core concepts related to the game: bate (bat), guante (glove), correr (run), atrapar (catch), deslizar (slide), etc. This very effective vocabulary builder can be used by new readers as well as children just beginning to learn Spanish. The animated scenes depicted in the illustrations are guaranteed to tell their own story and keep young sports fans interested. Recommended for school libraries and bookstores. M.O.B.
