Descrição da editora
With simple Spanish and a glossary at the end, this fun read-aloud picture book, Marta! Big and Small, teaches little ones to identify opposites and animals and learn new words.
Marta is una niña, an ordinary girl . . . with some extraordinary animal friends!
As Marta explores the jungle, she knows she's bigger than a bug, smaller than an elephant, and faster than a turtle. But then she meets the snake, who thinks Marta is sabrosa—tasty, very tasty! But Marta is ingeniosa, a very clever girl, and she outsmarts the snake with hilarious results.

PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Arena and Dominguez nimbly combine an exploration of relativity with an introduction to Spanish vocabulary as una ni a named Marta encounters various animals while exploring a junglelike setting. Though the text is minimal, Arena uses repetition and context clues to make each concept readily clear: "To a horse, Marta is lenta. Slow, very slow. To a turtle, Marta is r pida. Fast, very fast." Dominguez's loose, energetic illustrations underscore the meanings of each term and, during a run-in with a hungry snake, help demonstrate that Marta is among other things "ingeniosa. Clever, very clever." Ages 4 7.
