A Paintbrush for Paco
A Paintbrush for Paco | Tracey Kyle
4 posts | 3 read | 3 to read
Meet a little boy named Paco who loves to draw but can't seem to concentrate during school in this picture book that's sprinkled with Spanish words! Paco gazed out at the late-morning sun. He wondered why recess had not yet begun. He wanted to go to el campo and play, and act like a matador shouting "Ol!" Paco loves daydreaming and drawing, but he struggles to concentrate during class. When his profesor takes him to the art room, Paco is amazed by the colorful paints: pink, rosado; purple, morado; fiery orange, anaranjado; and more! Could art be just what Paco needs? Complete with an author's note and glossary of Spanish words, this story is a great introduction to Spanish with a strong message about the power of art!

Really loved having illustrator Joshua Heinsz for story time at the store today. He helped created a really great bilingual children‘s book. Check it out!

Tracy Kyle signing my boys‘ book at #alaac18! She was very sweet. This book is perfect for preschoolers. It‘s bright and colorful and incorporates Spanish words and phrases in a fun and natural way. My pronunciation was put to the test (I‘ve always had problems with learning/speaking Spanish ☹️). Thankfully my guys are forgiving.

MarriedtoMrT Oooh. Sounds good! My 6yo is in a Spanish immersion class so I‘m always looking for hybrid books I can read to her. 6y

My #bookhaul box that I mailed myself from the library conference arrived today. I picked up these 2 beautiful books for the boys. Grandad Mandela (autographed by the illustrator) is a bit too old for them but I look forward to reading it to/with them soon. We‘ll read Paintbrush for Paco (signed by the author) tonight. #alaac18 #blackboyjoy #boysreadtoo #raisingreaders #blitsy #blacklitsy #readdiversebooks #pocauthors #kidsoflitsy
