PS
Reiser uses the bilingual structure in an ingenious way, with the English (Margaret's voice) and Spanish (Margarita's) mirroring each other on facing pages, but with each girl presenting a distinct self. Reiser's cheerful primary-bright palette signals readers that friends liking different things is just fine. A satisfying, upbeat reminder that kids can be true to themselves and be a good friend, too.
