In this rhyming celebration of playtime, bilingual Maya Papaya welcomes all four seasons with a flair for dress-up and an inclusion of Spanish words in an English narrative. Strong writing, a spunky protagonist, and themes of playtime and the changing seasons lead to a celebration as Maya Papaya plays dress-up and speaks to her toys in English and Spanish, going on adventures and making the most of their time together. Expert author Susan Middleton Elya is a former Spanish teacher and known for her prolific, award-winning bilingual books for children.

Maya Papaya has many reasons
to dress up her pets and toys for the seasons.
A hat or a scarf, some gloves or zapatos—
she dresses her dog, her stufties, her gatos.
la primavera
Winter has passed. See buds on the trees.
Daffodils blooming. More flores, please!
Maya Papaya puts on twelve hats—
lovely sombreros and caps for her cats.
Feathery, flouncy, flowery, funky—
grab an umbrella and rain boots for monkey.
Maya Papaya puts on tacones
to dance with her tigres and bears and leones.
All her peluches silently clap,
while two little gatos secretly nap.
