Cox, Editor-in-Chief, Diane Donovan, Editor, Midwest Book Review, The Education ShelfCHILDREN'S BOOKWATCH, MAY 2016Midwest Book Review May 12, 2016"Hola! Let's Learn Spanish" is a fun introduction to the joy of learning to speak a new language, with the assistance of Pete the Pilot and Panchito, a Mexican jumping bean. Pete the Pilot greets children with his plane and explains his job is to fly kids around the world to visit new places and make new friends. Today, Pete is taking his plane to Mexico to visit a sunny bean field. Pete starts with a list of simple expressions in English and Spanish and the children are off. What follows is a lovely story about a wandering jumping bean, written in English but embedded with expressions in Spanish, which are printed in bold. Comic, colored illustrations bedazzle the tale, and in the end the children participate in a birthday party or fiesta with a pinata full of caramelos to be broken and shared. What happens when the pinata is finally broken is a surprise for all (Que sorpresa!). The story of the jumping bean in the pinata ends with some added ideas for increasing Spanish fluency. In "Te toca a ti (It's Your Turn), kids are encouraged to act out a skit with friends, with lost of Spanish vocabulary in a treasure hunt, at the supermarket, and the Expresion diaria, list of daily expressions. A section titled Rincon cultural, or Culture Corner teaches about varieties of frijoles, counting in Spanish, pinatas, and inspires with a song, la cancion, about breaking the pinata, Dale, Dale, Dale. Next a chapter project of making a mask (una mascara) decorated with beans extends the exciting journey to Mexico. Finally a list of Palabras, or vocabulary words in Spanish and English lists the words that were introduced in the book, organized by chapter. "Hola! Let's Learn Spanish" is a creative, appealing invitation to explore the world of fiestas, frijoles, and caramelos awaiting travelers to Mexico.
From the Author ¡HOLA!.. is a start in learning the language. My hope is that parents and children will be enthusiastic about learning Spanish and will ask their elementary schools to implement programs for learning languages. Currently, only 15% of elementary schools here in the U.S.offer any form of foreign language instruction. Please see that your child continues the study of Spanish. If your local elementary school doesn't offer FLES (Foreign Language in Elementary School), please ask your Board of Education to implement a program so that your child and others can enjoy the benefits of learning another language.It takes many years to master a language, which expresses all the complexities of human thought. Your child will have a truly useful skill with amazing benefits after studying the language throughout grade school and college.

1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Nice introduction to Spanish for beginning readers that are interested in learning a new language. By Sci-Fi & Scary My 7-year-old and I read this book together, listening to the accompanying audio that’s found (for free) on [...] . I found the book to be perfectly suited for the age range, with simple illustrations that add color to the page without distracting the reader from what they’re reading. The small story about Panchito is written in an easy, flowing way, that help the kids figure out the Spanish words by context and mostly subtle repetitions or hints in English.The book contains the aforementioned Panchito story, some activities like making masks, vocabulary words, and a skit. My child had an easy time following along, liked going through some of the activities with me, such as responding where she would find certain things (by Spanish name, location), and enjoyed the Panchito story more than I thought she would.Overall, this was a good read and having the free audio was nice. However, the natural pauses the narrators gave could have been a bit longer. Oftentimes, my child would be in the middle of trying to repeat one of the Spanish words, and the story was already moving on. Even an extra second or two would have been nice. (I got in the habit of pressing pause myself, which isn’t a big deal, but still. Independently, that would have been a pain for my child.) It was interesting, and definitely kept the 7-year-old’s attention.Kid’s Review:Well, I really liked it. Panchito was a really funny name. Panchito was a jumping bean. I liked the little jumping bean story and the activities too! We looked around the house for stuff, and pretended we were at the grocery store! The pinata song was fun.It teaches you about Spanish. If someone, like me, didn’t know how to speak Spanish they should get this book. They would be able to look up how to say words in it. The audio portion mommy played on the computer was pretty cool and I liked that Judy Martialay had us repeating the words, but it went a little fast sometimes.I do want to visit Mexico one day.Disclaimer: We received a copy of this book free in exchange for an honest review.
1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. A fun and innovative way for children to learn a new language By Lynda Dickson - Books Direct The author uses some clever tricks to help readers learn the Spanish language. Pete the Pilot takes us with him on a virtual trip to Mexico, teaching us a few basic Spanish words on the way. We are also introduced to some phrases in the text with Spanish translations in bold. In Mexico, we meet Panchito the Mexican jumping bean. We visit the bean field, the market, and a child's birthday party. More phrases are introduced in context throughout this silly story, which is sure to hold your child's attention.The words and phrases learned in the story are then reinforced in a segment called "It's your turn", with practical exercises designed to get children talking to their friends and family in Spanish. Then we go on a "Treasure Hunt" to physically find the objects in question; this activity further reinforces memory retention. Also included is an "expression diary" to keep track of how many times a week we use a selection of Spanish phrases. Further activities include a short skit that will get the children acting and speaking in Spanish, cultural facts about the Spanish language and Mexico, the words to a piñata song in both Spanish and English, and a fun craft activity making a mask. Also included is a full list of all the Spanish words used, along with their English translations in alphabetical order by chapter; this list would be more helpful in straight alphabetical order, not separated into chapters.The cute, colorful, hand-drawn illustrations throughout the text will appeal to children of all ages. They are supplemented by a few color photographs.The author presents a fun and innovative way for children to learn a new language. A pleasure to read. Un placer.I received this book in return for an honest review.
1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Rich in Spanish Exposure w/ Free Online Audio Stream By Maura Ann Rubies This children's paperback sends you on a flight with Pete the Pilot as he takes his magic plane to Mexico. It opens with a fun story about Panchito--a Mexican jumping bean. You follow him on a brief adventure from his field, through market, to fiesta. Along the way, you meet people and experience new things while learning beginning Spanish words and phrases.The drawings are simple yet colorful with a few color photographs included. The font is nice and large, with the story being bigger in size than the rest of the book. It's all very comfortable on the eyes, especially since EVERY Spanish word appears in bold.One of my favorite aspects of the book, is that you can easily stream the audio version for free online at the website (provided in blue on the back of the title page). The author Judy Martialay narrates (with native speaker, Maria Fernanda Pardo who says the Spanish words/phrases). It's a must-have for learning the pronunciations. Play this for bedtime, bath time and/or mealtime to get as much exposure to the language as possible."UNA MASCARA/A Mask" is a craft project project with templates for making both male and female masks to decorate with beans. I love that there are photographs of completed samples. This inspires children to want to make one (or more) of their very own. You could then use these (or simple puppets made of popsicle sticks or paper bags...) to act out the characters as you reread the book. Note: An actual skit (Where is Panchito?) is located in the following chapter."TE TOCA A TI: It's Your Turn" is a chapter that provides activities to enable you to work with the Spanish words/phrases found in the story while adding many more into the "mix." You'll practice introductions, choose responses, identify items, place nouns in locations, hunt for specific people/things listed in Spanish, perform a skit and study expressions...In "RINCON CULTURAL/Culture Corner," you learn some aspects of Spanish culture, including practices that inspired this story, like a song that is sung when trying to break a piñata and the mystery behind what a "jumping bean" actually is!At the end of the book, you'll find "PALABRAS/Words" containing all the Spanish words organized by which section they were first introduced.This is an excellent book that demands a sequel--you can't help but learn some Spanish from this rich experience.*Complimentary paperback provided by the author for review purposes.
