This book is great for students at a beginner level of reading. This book is about the celebration of children's day/book day. There are many beautiful illustrations showcasing how we can read books wherever we want. We can read by ourselves, with friends and family, on a boat, in a car, on a train, on a plane, wherever we want! I would introduce this book to my classroom as an engaging informational text that engages students and motivates them to read books wherever they go.

This book is a good, easy read. The pictures are vibrant and colorful and I think it is very important that the book is in both English and Spanish. The book is also kind of nostalgic for me especially because as someone who comes from a hispanic household, the day of the child or el dia del nino is celebrated in my household and something that my mom always made us feel special with.

This book goes through the different sounds that you would hear in the desert. These sounds come from animals, plants, the wind, and more. This book is bilingual, so you see the sounds in not only English but Spanish as well.
