The Princess and the Pea / La princesa y el guisante

(3) K-3 Illustrated by Pau Estrada. In these bilingual tales, the short texts are smoothly translated from the original Catalan. In Duckling, especially, the text flows lyrically in both English and Spanish; the bold, almost cartoonish illustrations are effective. The illustrations in the nicely told Princess place the story in an Indian setting. Review covers these titles: The Princess and the Pea / La princesa y el guisante and The Ugly Duckling / El patito feo.
