Baby-Toddler–In this entry of the “Coco Rocho” series, readers get a special look at the beginning of Coco Rocho’s life and the special role his mother has played. Coco Rocho’s mother has always been there—from his mother’s belly and infancy to his toddler stage, starting to crawl and walk, to going to school. As she helps and teaches Coco Rocho, his mother also envelops him in her arms and with her love. Text is in both Spanish and English, with simple, short phrases sharing the love Coco Rocho’s mother has for him. Colorful shades welcome readers into Coco Rocho’s home and nursery, as well as offer special looks into the “World of ¡Vamos!” that readers will love.
VERDICT This bilingual board book is a perfect addition to children’s collections and a great selection for those searching for bilingual titles focusing on that special mother-child relationship.
