Praise for In Spring / En Primavera (Seasons/Estaciones)

"In this upbeat bilingual board book, a boy with a head of frizzy curls celebrates the seasonal delights of spring . . . Manso uses simple, direct sentences and a repeating structure, ending each spread with a question that invites reader response . . . Momohara’s photo-collages give the book real charm." —Publishers Weekly

"With engaging text by Susana Madinabeitia Manso and eye-popping photo illustrations by Emily Hanako Momohara, this pair of concept picture books [In Spring/En Primavera and In Autumn/En Otoño] offers an appealing approach to traditions commonly associated with each season." —Lila Quintero Weaver, latinosinkidlit.com
