I Know the River Loves Me / Yo sé que el río me ama

(3) K-3 A girl expresses her love for the river and tells of its reciprocal affection. Gonzalez deftly describes, in English and Spanish, how the child feels connected with nature. This theme is echoed in the imaginative illustrations that, in one case, show the design on the girl's dress flowing into the river itself. The bilingual text is well integrated into the page design.
