Review Quotes

"Gr 1-3-This unique nonfiction picture book takes a wonderful approach to discussing different characteristics and personalities people may have, and how emotional responses to situations are shaped by their experiences. Differences between characteristics, skills, and emotions are defined, and spreads are dedicated to different facets of personality such as being impulsive, empathetic, and timid. Several examples for each are given, along with what distinguishes them and some benefits and downsides of having them. In one spread, Manuela is shown as often daydreaming and not really paying attention due to having a great imagination. While this may result in lack of focus at times, it can also lead to creation, such as the inventions Manuela's father creates. Readers may see reflections of themselves in some of the characters and will come to understand why some individuals may be one way or another, as the book does a wonderful job of showing people's behavior in different situations. Illustrations are colorful, detailed, and eye-catching and present different people in a variety of settings. The Spanish text is clear and comforting, explaining behaviors well and offering supporting words and encouragement to readers who may want to overcome certain characteristics such as timidity, as well as offering advice that helps readers become more understanding. ¬VERDICT A wonderful way to discuss behavior and personality traits with younger readers, this informative Spanish title is an excellent addition to school and public libraries." --Selenia Paz, School Library Journal, Starred Review
