From an established writer, editor, and translator from Cuba, Uno Dos Tres is a journey that takes children from one adventure to another, and back home again, while learning Spanish! From school to the farm, and from playtime to bedtime, this book is a perfect introduction to the language for the youngest child. With a host of characters — people, animals, and birds — illustrating over 25 simple and well-known rhymes and songs, young children enjoy learning and speaking Spanish. The book also includes an audio CD — children are encouraged to repeat the phrases and sing along with the rhymes, as the CD lets them know how both should sound. The lively illustrations and amusing rhymes make learning a new language fun. A guide for parents translates more difficult phrases. Following the success of Un, Deux, Trois, Uno Dos Tres uses the same format and method to introduce young children to Spanish in a simple and accessible way.
