Vamos: Un Libro en Dos Lenguas

VAMOS: Un Libro en Dos Lenguas
by Rebecca Emberley



Vamos is a great book that is translated into both English and Spanish. The book is about going to many places and going and doing many activities. The story includes going to the zoo, the aquarium, camping and going on a picnic. The book also has many extra vocabulary words included on the pages that correspond with the story so it is a great learning tool for students who are just learning Spanish or English. This would be a great book for ESL students in Kindergarten to get acquainted with the English language. This book could also be used for Kindergarten or First grade for learning Spanish. 

The illustrations in the book corresponded well with what was going on in the story and there were also pictures for each of the vocabulary words giving a visual representation for students that are more visual/hearing learners than seeing information in writing. I liked this book because of the illustrations and also because of the added vocabulary. I would recommend it for Kindergarten and First and I like that it can be used to learn English or Spanish.
