A little boy lives with his grandmother and describes the routine they follow before she goes to work every morning, including bathing, singing, dressing, eating breakfast and getting dressed. The biggest strength of the book is the illustrations. They appear to be alive. The characters look like puppets without strings and because of the depth and color combinations it looks like you can actually see into the picture, in a 3- dimensional manner. In addition, it has Spanish words sprinkled throughout with the meaning being written within the text, so they are easy to understand and no meaning is lost. This would be a good book to read aloud to kids because it has a lot of voice ad lends itself to lively reading.
