Introduce little ones to the lovely city of Santo Domingo, the capital of the Dominican Republic, in both English and Spanish! Introduce your little readers to Santo Domingo, the stunning capital of the Dominican Republic. Children will start their journey on the Teleférico ; afterward, they will learn to tell time using the Reloj del Sol at the plazoleta , study the lush gardens of the Santo Domingo Greenbelt, dance to the beat at the Merengue Festival, and taste the delicious platters of cangrejo guisado and sancocho. Parents will want to get their hands on these travel books to engage their little ones in the beauty of exploring new cultures and countries without ever necessarily leaving the comfort of their homes and just using their imagination!
Okay, who would have thought there could be a way to introduce geography via a board book? This is just fine for littles. Maybe not infants, but certainly grubby preschoolers... though I'd have them wash their hands as the pictures are so cheerful they're worth preserving as long as possible.
Heck, I learned quite a bit, and am now interested in learning more, esp. about the food, tbh. There is back matter for older readers, but all it does for me is further pique my curiosity!
I'm also enjoying the other board books in this series, as I can learn a bit about places and culture of Bogota, etc.
