ABC (Bilingual Edition) (Spanish and English Edition)

From A to Z, this book is comprised of forty-four poems that make connections between the sounds of letters and the meaning of certain words; between those words and the everyday objects they represent; between the letters, the images, and the game of language in this poetic alphabet, accompanied by hand-embroidered illustrations that will introduce children to the world of poetry.

His literary output has been very abundant and varied, and he has undertaken three genres: first, poetry, followed by essays, and, finally, translations. He has published twenty-six books of poetry in Mexico and additional books in other countries; ten books of his translations of the work of other poets; and twelve storybooks for children, some of which have been illustrated by his wife Patricia Revah. His work has been translated into twenty languages, including English, French, German, Portuguese, Italian, Dutch, Swedish, Danish, Hungarian, Japanese, Romanian, Bulgarian, Zapotec, and Russian.
