How our Spanish–English editions work
Each page has the same illustration as the English book, and under every English sentence its Spanish translation, in orange. The Spanish is neutral Latin American Spanish, written for children and their parents.
Cada página tiene la misma ilustración que el libro en inglés y, debajo de cada frase en inglés, su traducción al español. El español es latinoamericano neutro, escrito para niños y sus familias.
The books (Los libros)
- Pride and Prejudice · Orgullo y prejuicio
- Little Women · Mujercitas
- Sense and Sensibility · Sentido y sensibilidad
Look for cognates
Spanish and English share thousands of related words. Spotting them is one of the fastest ways for children to grow in either language. A few to look for:
- family / familia
- garden / jardín
- letter / letra (careful: a letter you send is una carta!)
- important / importante
- visit / visitar
- music / música
Reading tips (Ideas para leer juntos)
- Take turns reading the English and Spanish lines.
- Read the Spanish first for a child who is learning English, and the English first for a child learning Spanish.
- Ask “¿Qué crees que pasará?” (What do you think will happen?) before turning the page.
- Act out a scene in one language, then the other.
- Lean por turnos: uno lee la frase en inglés y el otro, la frase en español.
- Si su hijo está aprendiendo inglés, lean primero el español; si aprende español, primero el inglés.
- Representen una escena en un idioma y luego en el otro.
