Dora and Boots are headed to a sleepover. Before they arrive at the sleepover they go tell all of the animals good night, buenas noches. They encounter the bugga bugga babies,bees, chickens,ducks, snakes, frogs, and owls good night! After telling all the animals good night they arrive to the sleepover and fall fast asleep.

In terms of literacy this book is great for sequencing. Students could describe what happened first, next, then, and last.

Students could describe the settings in which the animals lived.

This book is an excellent book for voice! Students could practice making the sounds of each animal they encounter in the text.

This book seeks to gap the bridge between Spanish-Speaking ESOL learners and English. These students are intoruced to familiar words such as Buenas noches (goodnight), pajaros (birds),abejas (bees), pollos (chickens), patros (ducks), culebras (snakes), ranas (frogs), lechuza (owls) and mami (mommy).

This is a cute and quick read aloud text.

This is a sweet tale, perfect for reading to young children at bedtime. Dora and Boots are headed to her home for a sleepover and they say "Buenos noches" to all the critters they see along the way. Our girls enjoyed this story.

This story is great right before bedtime. You get to read through the forest, saying goodnight to all the animals you see. Buenos noches!

Fun book. We like lifting the flaps and acting like the sleepy animals. It never works with my little one, though.

I loved this book so much when I was little that my parents had to re bind it with ribbon! It has reminders of animal noises, but it also has each animal name in Spanish as well as "buenas noches" on each page. It's a great way to introduce kids to Spanish in a fun, lift the flap story! The story is a little bare bones, but it will still hold student attention due to the fun lift the flap illustrations.

This is a nice story about Dora & the monkey seeing various animals (behind flaps) and hearing their sounds, before going to bed.

Read with my 4yo daughter. Very cute book. She loved flipping up the flaps to discover the baby animals and a great way to learn how to say "good night" in spanish since it is repeated so many times in the book.
