Disclosure: I received a complimentary copy of this book for the purpose of reviewing it. I did not receive monetary compensation for this review. All opinions are my own.
I read this book to my bilingual son, and his bilingual friends. Ages 5-7 and they loved the story! They quickly identified with the main character Rosie Ray. The first thing that they mentioned was that they too were bilingual like Rosie, and ate different foods from what their own friends ate.
Rosie is having a hard time adapting to her new home, and communicating with friends until she realizes that being bilingual is fun!
This book is a favorite in our home, and must have in any bilingual home's library. This is a sweet book that any bilingual child can relate to. It's rhyming prose is perfect to capture the little one's attention, and the soft, pastel illustrations are inviting to look at.
