by Alexandra Alessandri Illustrated by Courtney Dawson "Rojo, verde, azul, rosado, morado, violeta. Spanish-speaking Isabel, with brown skin and curly hair, loves coloring with her favorite crayons. What she does not like is that tomorrow is her first day of school where everyone will speak English. This first day of school story beautifully serves as a mirror for children learning English and as a window into their experience for their classmates." (School Library Journal) |
