Description
xMeet Enrique, a bilingual boy who finds speaking Spanish a chore...until he discovers it's the superpower he needs to save his uncle--and the day!
Knock, knock! T?o Ricky is in town and he needs his nephew Enrique's help! He doesn't speak any English, so his nephew has to translate for him at the store, the post office, and the bank. But speaking Spanish feels like such a chore...until Enrique finds himself in a situation where his bilingual skills become life-saving. Enrique soon discovers that speaking two languages isn't just helpful--it's powerful, and it can strengthen family ties in ways he never imagined. It's a heartwarming story in English and Spanish that shows you don't need a superhero cape to be a hero!
Parents will adore this bilingual English-Spanish hardcover as it spotlights a nephew-uncle relationship in which language barriers know no boundaries. As well, this book showcases the genuine importance of speaking two languages, encouraging bilingualism in our future generations, and the power behind translation, especially between multigenerational individuals.
