K-Gr 2–For a father and daughter, the daily walk to school is a thrilling adventure filled with exciting sounds, exotic animals, and what seems like magic at every turn. The father is blind, but somehow he knows the sound of every car approaching them. The daughter sees very little, she but knows every single step of the journey, roaring rivers and all. Without each other, the walk would not be the same. This is a wonderfully illustrated story of the love between a parent and child, and how the simplest things can turn an ordinary journey into an adventure.
VERDICT A strong choice for Spanish-language collections.
