WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING ABOUT CUENTACUENTO BOOKS:

"La primera impresión al leer "Omar , el jaguar", fue celebrar la alegría de
poder llegar a enseñar español con una literatura simple y concreta, con
contenido y el agregado de la incroporación de conceptos como la diversidad y el
encuentro con lo que a veces parace diferente (y no lo es tanto...). La grafica
es de una estética muy cuidada y exquisita. El éxito está asegurado para este
libro y ansioso espero las nuevas publicaciones!!"

Jorge VieraIllusionist- Father of two
"Things I love about this book: the animals featured are not your typical
story-book creatures! They are animals from South America and this book will
make you want to learn more about them and where they love. The Story goes
through and entire week, making this a great book for learning the days of the
week in Spanish! The length is perfect for my kiddos who are novice level and
can’t sit through big long paragraphs of Spanish."

Kali (For the Love of Spanish)Blogger, Educator, Mom
"A chance encounter on Facebook led me to the author and this little jewel of a
children’s book in Spanish. When I got a copy—so entranced by the imaginative
beauty— It’s a wonderful message of acceptance of others and will remind you of
Sesame Street in its gentle, whimsical, wholesome tone. Well worth FIVE stars".

ClarionNovelist
Great for Earth Day!! "I'm always looking for good themed books in Spanish, and
this one will be wonderful for Earth Day. The text flows very nicely in Spanish,
and there is minimal text on each page, which I like for my preschool-aged
daughter. The story is pretty simple, which is nice. It reminds me a little of
The Grumpy Ladybug, but it makes more sense. Beautiful illustrations that could
inspire kids to create their own artwork".

Maestra CuervoPre-K Language Immersion Teacher
Guillo, el armadillo is a heart warming tale in Spanish for children. Guillo
becomes despondent at school when he struggles to find his own special talent.
The narrative is beautifully crafted; the text is magical and the illustrations
are colourful and delightful. The book is perfect for children who speak or are
learning Spanish. It also introduces the reader to the fauna of South America.
But perhaps most importantly, this story encourages children to look inside of
themselves and discover their unique gifts. In my opinion, Guillo is a star! He
will help children shine brightly too. Can't recommend the book enough!

Dr. Lisa Dunbar- SolasEducator, storyteller, arqueologist (Ancient Explorers)
"I'm looking forward to sharing this book with my elementary school students!
The story offers great "total physical response" opportunities for a Spanish
teacher to use in their classroom. The illustrations and colors also provide
additional opportunities to expand on prepositions, adjectives, body parts,
verbs (climb, fly, run...) and additional vocabulary seen throughout the book
(moon, tree, flower...)".
