    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on August 17, 2019
    Love these books - we bought three (three billy goats/red riding hood/gingerbread man) and the girls love them. They are 7 and 9 and can easily read the English side. These books encourage them to try the Spanish as they can understand the context of the words.
