2—This glossy paper-over-board book (Teach Me Tapes, 2009) by Judy Mahoney
introduces some basic Spanish words related to the seasons. Readers are taken
through the months of the year and taught corresponding vocabulary. Each
month has at least one song along with some basic dialogue about a typical
activity presented in Spanish and English. Bright, bold illustrations
accompany the text. The CD contains some of the dialogue and music. Oddly,
the CD does not always completely correspond with the book. Although the
changes are minor, they are disconcerting. Also, no pattern is apparent in
how selections were made for what was included on the CD. It begins with
music and dialogue presented in Spanish and English, but as it progresses, some
of the songs are presented in only one language, and some of the dialogue is
skipped. Near the end of the CD, the volume increases. Two errors in the text
should have been caught by the editors. The music is bouncy and fun and most
of the songs will be familiar to young children. However, they all don't
translate well in both languages. Audio quality is clear, and the singing is
exceptional. This book/CD set could be a useful resource for those teaching
Spanish to young children, but it could have been much better if a little
more care had been taken.—Teresa Bateman, Brigadoon Elementary School,

Eloise had been a dog, she would have been Naughty Mabel, the overprivileged,
overindulged canine heroine of this picture book. Like Eloise's, some of
Mabel's humor is best appreciated by the adults who will be reading aloud, as
when Mabel describes her age ('five is the new three'), but many of her
antics will resonate with youngsters who wish they could get away with
driving a golf cart or applying their own touches to the artwork on their
parents' walls. One way to divide the world is between those who believe
their pets should be regarded as children and that they should be admired by
everyone they encounter, and those who do not. People in the former camp will
like this book. VERDICT An amusing, if additional, purchase.—Miriam Lang
