Product Description

Joe and José play games in the park in this third bilingual picture book in the My Friend, Mi amigo series

Two friends, an English speaker and a Spanish speaker, go to the park for a day filled with games and making new friends.

Hi, José! Let's go to the park. Hola Joe! Vamos al parque.
I like to climb. Me gusta subir.
I like to slide. Me gusta deslizarme

Perfect for preschoolers, kindergarteners, and first and second graders who are learning to speak or read English and Spanish. A delightful reading experience for bilingual families. 

René Colato Laínez, a teacher in a bilingual kindergarten classroom, has crafted an ingenious story that authentically and naturally uses conversation to introduce children to English and Spanish. The fun friendship story engages children, while simple words, short sentences, and a glossary reinforce learning. 

Nomar Perez, Pura Belpre Honor winning illustrator of best-selling children’s books as well as greeting cards, has a bright, bold, colorful, kid-pleasing style that invites readers to befriend the characters in this book.

René was raised in El Salvador and Nomar in Puerto Rico.
