Take a moment to stop and smell the flowers on a colorful visit to a flower shop in this bilingual board book series that introduces the youngest of readers to the community around them.
Welcome to Mrs. Rosario's flower shop.
Bienvenido a la florería de la Señora Rosario's.
In Mrs. Rosario's flower shop, there are so many beautiful flowers for sale--from roses and rosemary to lilacs and lilies! Learn their names in both English and Spanish, then pick your favorite for a special gathering at the senior center. Will you choose a pretty daisy/margarita? Or a fragrant hydrangea/hortensia? They are all so lovely! In this bilingual series from Lourdes Heuer and Zara González Hoang, readers are invited to make a stop at a different teeny tienda in each bright board book and celebrate with the vibrant, diverse community that frequents it.
