Description/Notes
Bold, colorful, and rhythmic, Shahan's thirtieth book for children rocks and rolls through animals and numbers with infectious verve. Each spread uses a different set of animals to allow young readers to count out the number. Ecuadoran artist Barragan clothes the animals in vibrant Latin colors and shows them dancing to lively rhythms. Ole! Donkeys lined up to dance the merengue? Rats in bolero hats? Pigs salsa dancing? And how cool are those cats anyway? Sherry Shahan and Paula BarragA-n, the collaborators behind the highly acclaimed Spicy Hot Colors, reteam in a burst of color and rhythm to introduce young readers to animals and numbers in English and Spanish. Shahan's poetic riffs suggest a variety of rhythms and dances, and BarragA-n's multimedia illustrations outfit the animals in vibrant costumes any diva would envy!
