Freight Train/Tren de carga: A Cledecott Honor Award Winner (Bilingual English-Spanish) - Hardcover
The Caldecott Honor Book is now available in a bilingual edition to delight Spanish and English readers.
In powerful words and vibrant illustrations, Donald Crews evokes the essence of inexorably rolling wheels, so that even a child not lucky enough to have counted freight cars will feel he has watched a freight train passing.
A book truly for the youngest child -- and for every one of us who has been that child.
El Libro de Honor de Caldecott ya esta disponible en una edición bilingüe para el encanto de los lectores en español e inglés. Por medio de palabras poderosos e ilustraciones vibrantes, Donald Crews evoca la esencia de ruedas rodando inexorablemente, que hasta un niño sin haber tenido la suerte de contar los vagones de un tren sentirá que ha visto pasar un tren de carga. Un libro realmente para el más joven de niños -- y para cada uno de nosotros quien ha sido aquel niño.

PreSchool-Grade 2-This simple but stylish Spanish translation of Crews's 1979 Caldecott Honor Book retains its freshness and child appeal. A multicolored freight train comes down the track. Each car is named from the back forward, with its appropriate color: red caboose, orange tank car, yellow hopper car, etc., until the black engine is reached. The train moves faster, through cities, tunnels, night and day, faster and faster until it is gone. The clear, graphic art illustrations convey utility and, as the train goes faster and the illustrations blur, the very essence of speed. As strong in the bilingual edition as it is in its English-only original, this is ideal for introducing trains, colors, and the concept of fast and slow to preschool and early elementary students, and perfect for ELL programs.
