About this eBook
Help Alma find Pajarito . . . in two languages! The celebrated series of bilingual board books continues, with a focus on prepositions—and starring the subject of the Caldecott Honor Book Alma and How She Got Her Name.
Where is Pajarito? / ¿Dónde está Pajarito?
Is he under my blanket? / ¿Estará debajo de mi frazada?
Where is Alma’s flying friend Pajarito? Is that him behind the books? Or beside the stool? Could he be between the hats? Now he’s above Alma—and about to land on a very funny perch! In a new entry in this joyful board-book series, award-winning author-illustrator Juana Martinez-Neal follows little Alma on a search for her mischievous pet bird, using a conversational narrative that weaves in simple prepositions—and features words and phrases in English and Spanish on every spread.
