I am a sucker for abecedarios. I love the Spanish alphabet. I even love the word – ah-beh-seh-dah-ree-ohs. Doesn’t it just tickle your tongue? Which is why I have already featured one on the blog and am now featuring another, and guess what? I’ll probably feature some more.
My latest favorite is F is for Fiesta by Susan Middleton Elya, which features all 30 letters of the Spanish alphabet. Centering around a young boy’s birthday party from beginning to end, the book uses simplistic (but fun!) rhymes written in English with Spanish words embedded in the text. There is a glossary at the front of the book to help readers understand the Spanish language, if necessary. This is a great book for beginning Spanish speakers- not too complex. Perfect for children ages 2 to 6, though older children just beginning to learn Spanish may find it helpful.
It begins…
A is for adornos.
hung up by Papá.
B is for biscochitos,
baked by Mamá.

C is for cumpleaños,
your birthday – hurray!
CH is for churros
for breakfast. ¡Olé!

Like I said, easy and fun.

I have a thing for abecedarios, too. I wonder if we have some of the same favorites? I'd never heard of this one, though, it looks like a fun one! I'll have to check it out.
