Overview

Combining art and science, the lively images in the El morralito series are a feast for the eyes, and the simple and straightforward texts are an excellent introduction to the written word. From books on natural phenomena such as gravity and light to others that use animals to introduce children to basic concepts such as colors, numbers, shapes, and sizes, these books are ideal for the youngest of readers. Fascinating and fun, this learning tool goes beyond simply teaching children how to count to 10 and introduces them to a number of interesting animals--some well-known and others less so. Young readers will learn how one foot, two eyes, three horns, four wings, and more intriguing characteristics help animals eat, fly, hunt, mate, and run. Combinando arte y ciencia, las imagenes vivas en la serie El morralito son una invitacion para los ojos, y los textos claros y sencillos son una excelente introduccion al lenguaje escrito.
