With beautiful colorful illustrations and easy to read words, Maya Christina Gonzalez has created a great book that relates colors to the environment. 'Mis Colores, mi mundo; My colors my world' is an English to Spanish book about a young girl living in the desert who sees colors such as red, pink, and purple in her everyday life. The translation from English to Spanish is accurate which will be a very useful tool for teaching in bilingual classrooms. All the content is true to its real world counterpart, and provides children the opportunity to see the colors that happen to be in their very own environment. This book will be popular among bilingual teachers in Kindergarten, but will also be a good book for parents who are raising bilingual children to have their own home library.
