El camioncito azul abre el camino
Alice Schertle
- Reading
- Read the rhymes aloud and pause to spot the different vehicles. After the traffic jam, invite your child to talk about how taking turns might help a group get along.
- Themes
- Taking turns and collaboration: Vehicles push to be first, a traffic jam forms, and Little Blue comes to the rescue; the Spanish cover text presents collaboration and taking turns as part of the adventure. The cover text explicitly frames collaboration and taking turns positively, though the details of how the rescue models these ideas are not given.
- Worth knowing
- The city is described as noisy and fast, and the vehicles push to be first before a large traffic jam forms. Consider whether this busy, competitive scene suits your child’s interests.
