Good use of repetition for early readers

This book was well translated. The story still rhymes in the Spanish version and the use of repetition is good for young children as they start to learn to read. The classic Eric Carle illustrations are vibrant and colorful. We read this book often as we work on teaching our children reading and Spanish.

Fun book about animal sounds

We have five Eric Carle books (some English some Spanish) and this is my 18-mo-old's favorite. I think he likes the repetition and rhythm. He brings it to me all the time. The illustrations are simple, colorful and inviting.

From book:
"Oso polar, oso polar, que es ese ruido?
Es un leon que ruge en mi oido.
Leon, leon, que es ese ruido?
Es un hipopotamo que resopla en mi oido.
Hipopotamo, hipopotamo, que es ese ruido?..."

Polar Bear, Polar Bear, What Do You Hear? is the companion book to the classic Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What Do You See? Bill Martin's simple, rhythmic text invites young listeners to chant along with the sounds of the animals in the zoo, from braying zebras to trumpeting elephants. Eric Carle's vibrant and imaginative illustrations are the perfect match for the playful text, keeping children enthralled reading after reading. This new Spanish translation brings Bill Martin and Eric Carle's book to a whole new audience. Spanish-speaking and bilingual children will now be able to share the joy and magic of the delightful Polar Bear and his friends at the zoo.
