Mi hijo de 3 años no se interesa mucho por este libro aun. El libro tiene pocos dibujos y bastante texto y el español es algo complejo. Sin embargo, me interesa tener buen material para leerle en español para expandir su vocabulario. Este libro esta muy bien escrito y los libros con pocas imágenes ayudan a los niños a imaginarse el cuento y mejoran su comprensión lectora.He comprado algunos libros en español que son traducciones y el español es triste. Este libro es una belleza de leer, y eso no es fácil de encontrar. Lo recomiendo mucho.Creo que es como para niños de 5 años. Igual se lo estoy leyendo a mi hijo y el se esfuerza por seguir el cuento. Lo tengo que ayudar conversando sobre lo leído, pues sino noto que no lo puede seguir.
This book is beautiful and the stories are engaging for kids as well as adults. The illustrations are beautiful but the focus is on the writing. This will definitely become a family heirloom.
My goddaughters are being reared bilingually, at my behest. ... English-speaking parents at night, and Spanish-speaking nanny during the day.While it's difficult to find age-appropriate instructional materials for pre-school children that correspond with other efforts to ensure Spanish language aquisition, as a native speaker, .com has been a true treasure trove. Cuentos que contaban nuestras abuelas is a perfect example, and my goddaughters (twins, 3 1/2 years of age) love it.
And the end of every story there are beautiful descriptions of where the story originated. Wonderful stories to read to infants and toddlers.
These stories are classic folk tales, not fairy tales. Each story is under 5 pages with illustrations. Great book for beginners and intermediate learners. Should be required reading at all university Spanish courses!
I am an adult who wants to improve my spanish as well as learn about the popular stories told to children in the Hispanic culture. I recommend this book to help you improve your Spanish because it seems very well written and the stories are enjoyable. I like the "Bienvenida" section that provides an explanation/history of the origin of the stories (12 in all) and then after each individual story, the author gives you a little more information about that particular story. This adds to the enjoyment of the book.
I love this book, and the stories on it.Easy and fun to read. It has very few illustrations, but I find them to be creative and great.Definitely not for young kids, as the pages are of regular thickness.
Lovely book - but either needs more pictures, or is meant for an older child (my son is just about to turn three). If the page has no pictures, he wants me to turn to a page with pictures - which, of course, eliminates two whole pages of content! He'll happily listen to a whole page as long as there is a picture in it - and it is a lovely collection of stories in Spanish that are written IN Spanish - which is huge for me. So I give it four stars - and if your child is older - I give it five!enjoy!
