Manolito Four-Eyes: The 3rd Volume of the Great Encyclopedia of My Life

(3) 4-6 Translated by Caroline Travalia. Illustrated by Emilio Urberuaga. In this third Manolito book, our hero actually becomes a hero while having to stay in town when the rest of the world is vacationing. Manolito's narrative voice is engaging and knowingly sarcastic; with his digressions and explanations, he sounds like a real child. The story is particularly effective in subtly integrating explanations of Spanish culture for uninitiated readers.
