BUYING ADVISORY: Pre-K - ADVISABLE
AUDIENCE APPEAL: HIGH
Little Elephants counts to 5, 1 new number on each page. The first elephant is balancing on a spiderweb, adding a new elephant on each page. The left side of each page is in English. The right side is in Spanish. The flap has the number on it, and when you flip it open, it has the English word for one, and the Spanish word for one (uno) displayed. That theme continues through the number 5. Then the elephants crash and say “That was fun! Let’s do it again!” (and repeated again in Spanish).
Little Elephants is a great book for introducing and teaching counting and Spanish. It is written in a way where it could be used to teach English speakers Spanish, and just as fairly teach Spanish speakers English. It is cute with its rhyming. I cannot confirm whether or not the Spanish side of each page rhymes as well, but I would assume that it does. The artwork is very attractive and adorable.
