Join Jos as he trains his new dog in this fun early reader that uses both Spanish and English! Jos loves his family: his Papi, Mami, and little sister, Sofi. But something is missing--he dreams of having a dog, un perro of his own. Finally Jos gets to pick el perro perfecto, the perfect dog, from a shelter. But when he tries out commands like " Sintate!" (sit) and " chate!" (lie down), his new pet simply tilts his head to the side in confusion. Then he realizes that the dog does understand commands--he just doesn't understand Spanish! Follow along as Jos teaches su perro inteligente some new words en espaol. This early reader, co-written by notable Broadway producer Susan Rose and children's book author Silvia Lpez, is the perfect introduction for English-speaking children who have just begun learning Spanish. The inclusion of the Spanish/English translations at the end of the book also makes it an excellent teaching tool. Exciting, easy-to-read books are the stepping stone a young reader needs to bridge the gap between being a beginner and being fluent.
