Description

Take a moment to stop and smell the flowers on a colorful visit to a flower shop in this bilingual board book series that introduces the youngest of readers to the community around them.


Welcome to Mrs. Rosario’s flower shop.
Bienvenido a la florería de la Señora Rosario.

In Mrs. Rosario’s flower shop, there are so many beautiful flowers for sale—from roses and rosemary to lilacs and lilies! Learn their names in both English and Spanish, then pick your favorite for a special gathering at the senior center. Will you choose a pretty daisy/margarita? Or a fragrant hydrangea/hortensia? They are all so lovely! In this bilingual series from Lourdes Heuer and Zara González Hoang, readers are invited to make a stop at a different teeny tienda in each bright board book and celebrate with the vibrant, diverse community that frequents it.
