[Sabrina · Rating 2 out of 5]

Bilingual books are always a plus. Liked the concept, but the Spanish is not quite up to par.

This non-fiction book is about pinatas. It explains what they are made of, what to put inside, and step by step instructions on how to make them. This book has both English and Spanish translations so it would be good to use for Spanish speaking children or all children interested in the language. It could be used to teach time order words, or transitional words such as first, next, then last etc. It can also teach students about listing events in the order that they occurred when summarizing.
