Ada, Alma Flor, and F. Isabel Campoy. ¡Pio Peep! Traditional Spanish Nursery Rhymes. New York: HarperCollins Publishers, 2003.

The twenty-nine nursery rhymes and songs selected makes this book a wonderful read. Each one presented in Spanish, and poetic recreations in English for all to enjoy. The rhythmic flow in both languages is simple and will have children reading to a great beat. The illustrations throughout the book are done in detail with vibrant colors that add much style to the book. This book can be a great use for teachers and parents both, and a must carry for all libraries.
