My Big Book of Spanish Words


Emberley, Rebecca. 2008. My BIG Book of Spanish Words


Rebecca Emberley is a fabulous children's author and illustrator. She is one of Ladybug's favorites. Emberley's series of bilingual board books were first published in 2000 with more books added in 2002 and 2005. Each book originally had ten pages and one subject. The page had one illustration and the word in English and Spanish.

My BIG Book of Spanish Words is a compilation of 8 of her original books and three new ones. The pages are large with each page being the equivalent of one ten page book. Each page has the same vibrant illustrations that have captured Snugglebug's interest from the first time he saw one of her books, as well as the words in both English and Spanish. The subjects in this compilation are colors, food, toys, clothes, rooms, animals, things that go, shapes, numbers, bath time, and bedtime.


As readers of several of her original bilingual board books, Ladybug and Snugglebug highly recommend this latest publication.

My oldest is learning Spanish in his Montessori 3-6 classroom. I don't know Spanish but I think a Spanish word book is a wonderful idea to complement his learning!
