Being Peruvian myself, a primary teacher, and knowing many of the legends, this book is a great teaching tool. The illustrations are take from actual textiles from Peru and are just breath taking. The moral of the story is one the children will understand easily. This can be taught in a variety of ways : moon, culture, country study, and more. This is a wonderful book that I strongly recommend.
Bilingual book ,English and Spanish, one of the favor books in our house, my husband used to love to red it to our first girl , and when we got our second child, he enjoyed to much keep the tradition on going, our nephew is expecting a baby soon and we just got this copy for them so they can start their own family tradition, reading this nice book .
We saw this story on Between the Lions and my son kept asking me for it. The illustrations are beautiful and the story even has a mole in it!
Lois Ehlert has written and illustrated many great books for children, and this bilingual book, Moon Rope, is another great book by the author. The story is a traditional folk tale and in this version it is the 'fox in the moon' not the rabbit who becomes the face on the moon. The illustrations which were inspired by Peruvian art are big, very bold and in brilliant colors, including silver. The paper and printing are of excellent quality.
My son loves this book, and I love that it has the entire story in both English and Spanish side by side. Great teaching tool, and lots of fun to read.
I had to buy this book so that I could teach my English Language Development class. My district buys the minimum and then expects the teacher to buy the rest of the program. Good gig.
I love this book:) great for Spanish and English! Great pictures:)
Great book! Love that it's both English and Spanish
