Karl Beckstrand
Goodreads Author's Bio
FUN AND SWEET READ
The author Karl Beckstrand creates
a wonderful rhyming book with bright, fun illustrations with simple words for early readers. This book not only entertains, but also provides the
lesson to share and care.
It is a bilingual book that features
English and Spanish on each page. The plot turns around the mystery of
crumbs on the stairs and everywhere that
helps children learn the process of narratives, rhyming words, numbers, colors,
and introduces another language.
I highly recommend this book
to learn new words or practice the contrast between Spanish/English forms.
