Quiero A Mi Papa Porque (I Love My Daddy Because English / Spanishedition) (Spanish Edition)

"I love my mommy because she gives me great big hugs.""I love my daddy because he takes naps with me."These two beloved, best-selling concept books, richly illustrated by Ashley Wolff, are now available as board books for small hands.  The youngest nursery tots will appreciate how phrases and actions from their own experiences also apply to animal babies.  Each book begins with an affectionate scene between a human parent and child, but moves on to care giving in animal families.  "She listens when I talk" shows a mamma cat and her mewing kitten.  "She tucks me in features a kangaroo with her joey peeking out of her pouch.  "He sings me songs" shows a gray wolf and his cub.  In concept, text, and art, these are among the most warm and reassuring lap books ever.

We're in Arizona, so the spanish speaking population is immense, so I want my daughter to learn Spanish. I bought this and "Queiro a Mi Mama Porque," and these are the only books my daughter wants to read before bed. They are absolutely adorable!

we have both the mom and dad versions of this book. they are different. i was afraid the story would be the same in both but one says mom and one says dad. but there are different reasons to love mom and dad in each book. it is a board book so great for my toddler. we love that it has both languages so either my husband or i could read it to our son without having to buy 2 books as we do with so many others.we also like all the animals in the books. it tells you what each animal is called its baby version, e.g. cub. so you can use the book in a variety of ways with your child, e.g. read it, teach the animals or ask him/her to point animals out to you.

It has all of the words and animals names in Sapanish and English. I even learned some of the names of animals I didn't know in English!! It's also a very loving book!

This is a really cute book. Lovely pictures and text as well. My 18 month old daughter likes it when her father reads this to her.

I bought this book for my great niece, who will be learning both English and Spanish. Thus book honors the love between a child and his/her Daddy. Her father has enjoyed reading this book to her. I would highly recommend it.

A beautiful board book, I love that the animal names (particularly the obscure ones, as well as the appropriate translation for the name of the baby animal depending on the species) which are clearly specified on each page.

I'm a brand new daddy to an 8 month girl. Although she's too young to fully understand the words/story, I read it to her several times a week. I'm a native Spanish speaker, first generation born in the USA from immigrant parents. I've often heard that by the 3rd or 4th generation, one has fully assimilated into the new culture, thus effectively minimizing whatever cultural traits their ancestors passed down, most often including language. Spanish was the language spoken at home growing up and as children of immigrant parents do, I assimilated while retaining much of my parents culture. I made a personal commitment to further instill my parents culture that I grew up with to my daughter. This book is a small but useful tool in doing so. Not only does it do so in the obvious fashion of being in Spanish, but also with slight cultural cues in the importance of the paternal figure. In Latin culture, the father is both respected and loved dearly. This affection is strongly reflected in the book; I love my daddy because he protects me, I love my daddy because he plays with me, etc.I have highlighted the above, so those of you whom are native Spanish speakers take advantage of it as well.

This books gives my husband the opportunity to really connect with my son. Although simple, it's full of educational insight, as it shows animals that are typically not featured in other children's book, therefore, expanding the vocabulary of the audience (both in English and Spanish). It's sweet, describing various unique things that make you "love daddy". We have a bilingual household, so by reading it in English, it also gives the opportunity for my baby to interact with others who love the book and may not speak Spanish (and vice versa).
