Description

This high-quality Spanish-language edition of Eric Carle's The Grouchy Ladybug can be enjoyed by fluent Spanish speakers as well as those learning the language, whether at home or in a classroom.

Por veinte años, La mariquita malhumorada ha deleitado a los pequeños lectores y oyentes. Sus dibujos audaces y su texto humorístico nos relatan la historia de una diminuta mariquita, como no hay otra.

La mariquita malhumorada no acostumbraba a decir "por favor" ni "gracias"; no le gustaba compartir nada; pensaba que era más grande y más importante que los demás; y siempre estaba lista a provocar una pelea.

De acción continua y con atractivas páginas troqueladas, esta historia invita a los niños a explorar los conceptos de tiempo, tamaños, formas y buenos modales. Aprenderán, a la vez que se divertirán, con el cuento de cómo esta malhumorada fanfarrona se encuentra con "la horma de su zapato" y se convierte en un insecto bueno y educado.

Reimpreso, utilizando las ilustraciones originales, La mariquita malhumorada, más atractiva que nunca, continúa siendo uno de los libros preferidos de los niños por su originalidad y su belleza.

In Eric Carle's classic picture book, we are introduced to the most irascible and irresistible of heroines. The Grouchy Ladybug didn't say "please" or "thank you." She didn't share. She thought she was better than everyone else. And she was always willing to pick a fight.

This fast-moving story invites children to explore the concepts of time, size, shape, and manners. Readers will laugh as they learn from this bad-tempered braggart who meets her match and became a nicer, better-behaved bug.
