Book Review: Federico and the Wolf by Rebecca J. Gomez

Federico and the Wolf
by Rebecca J. Gomez (jP Gomez)

Federico is on his way to his abuelo’s house, wearing his red hoodie, to make salsa together. A terrific re-telling of the Little Red Riding Hood story. A few basic Spanish words are sprinkled throughout the story to introduce a non-Spanish speaker to the language. Wonderful rhyming, a fun story, includes what the author calls “the best salsa recipe,” and Spanish/English translation included at the back.
