Bebe Goes Shopping is a fun and vibrant book that puts a bilingual spin on a familiar scenario. The story focuses on a baby who is determined to get into trouble by touching everything at the grocery store. The book incorporates 32 Spanish words which is a great way to start introducing another culture to children. The quirky illustrations are alive with movement and heighten the feeling of chaos in the supermarket aisles.
The book has lots of bright colors and fun illustrations. You will introduce your child to new words and sounds that will make the story more interesting. Also, your child will identify with the experience of going to the supermarket and will get excited about the involvement of old favorites like cookies, candy, and animals.
Whenever I read this book, I am reminded of my little brother Thomas who would try to drag items off of the supermarket shelves every single time we went to the store. My mom and the mom character in the book were both brilliant enough to know that animal crackers will make all of these problems disappear. You and your child will love to witness all of the mischief that the baby gets into when his mother turns her back for just a few seconds.
