Help Alma find Pajarito . . . in two languages! The celebrated series of bilingual board books continues, with a focus on prepositions—and starring the subject of the Caldecott Honor Book Alma and How She Got Her Name.

Where is Pajarito? / ¿Dónde está Pajarito?
Is he under my blanket? / ¿Estará debajo de mi frazada?

Where is Alma’s flying friend Pajarito? Is that him behind the books? Or beside the stool? Could he be between the hats? Now he’s above Alma—and about to land on a very funny perch! In a new entry in this joyful board-book series, award-winning author-illustrator Juana Martinez-Neal follows little Alma on a search for her mischievous pet bird, using a conversational narrative that weaves in simple prepositions—and features words and phrases in English and Spanish on every spread.

Henry ★★★★★

The search-and-find layout keeps my toddler engaged while we practice prepositions in both languages, and the board pages have survived plenty of drool and tossing. It’s a clever way to reinforce spatial words like “under” and “behind” without it feeling like a lesson.

William L. ★★★★★

Bilingual board books this sturdy are hard to find, and the way it teaches prepositions through a hide-and-seek story keeps my little one flipping pages every night. The lift-and-find format in both English and Spanish on the same spread makes it effortless to switch languages mid-read.

Ruby ★★★★★

My toddler already knows the words for “inside” and “outside” in Spanish thanks to this one, and the bilingual text side-by-side makes it easy for my parents to read along too. The lift-the-flap format keeps her guessing on every page, even after the tenth read.
