Critical Reviews
"This beautiful bilingual book gives children and adults alike a window into the world of brave little Gustavo as he navigates a new home and school - again. Combining well-placed pauses to ask readers how they think Gustavo feels; modern, clean drawings that support positive emotional responses to the characters and story; and a useful list of tips for adult educators, this will be a welcome resource in all classrooms with immigrant students. Kudos to the authors for integrating our newcomers' experiences into the core curriculum." - Dr. Kim Potowski, Professor of Spanish and Education, University of Illinois at Chicago
