K-3Personas de la comunidad series.
This series explores different professions within the context of local and international communities. The texts are easy to read but can be vague or repetitive and lacking in substance (e.g., dentists, doctors, and veterinarians all use instrumentos). Clear photographs of culturally diverse people will attract young readers. The Spanish is passable, if occasionally stilted. Glos., ind. Review covers these Personas de la comunidad titles: La policía, Los bomberos, Los dentistas, Los maestros, Los médicos, and Los veterinarios.
