À propos de ce produit

Product Information

Martina the beautiful cockroach doesn't know coffee beans about love and marriage. That's where her Cuban family comes in. While some of the Cucarachas offer her gifts to make her more attractive, only Abuela, her grandmother, gives her something really useful: un consejo incre ble, some shocking advice. At first, Martina is skeptical of her Abuela's unorthodox suggestion, but when suitor after suitor fails the Coffee Test, she wonders if a little green cockroach can ever find true love. Soon, only the gardener P rez, a tiny brown mouse, is left. But what will happen when Martina offers him caf cubano? After reading this sweet and witty retelling of the Cuban folktale, readers will never look at a cockroach the same way again. Also in Spanish and audio, Carmen Agra Deedy delivers a deliciously inventive Cuban version of the beloved Martina folktale, complete with a dash of caf cubano.

'Deedy's text sparkles with sly humor? The stunning acrylic illustrations are full of color, light, and humor? This wonderful book will delight children.', "Deedy's text sparkles with sly humor. . . The stunning acrylic illustrations are full of color, light, and humor. . . This wonderful book will delight children." --School Library Journal "Austin's cockroach dwelling is a desirable piece of real estate, with its stairs made of gum wrappers, its wrought-plastic comb railing, and its exclusive mid-Havana address (it's a lamppost). A friendly sprinkling of Spanish words, warmly drawn relationships and a lot of puns all widen the audience for this spirited story." --Publishers Weekly "Lively and funny. . . Fun to compare with other versions, this telling has magic all its own." --Kirkus Reviews "Deedy's masterful retelling of this Latino folktale has a rollicking voice imbued with sly tongue-in-cheek humor. The acrylic illustrations, in a hyper-realistic style reminiscent of a softer William Joyce, are rendered in a vivid tropical palette. Shifting perspectives and points of view add vitality to the compositions, and facial expressions reveal both emotions and character traits. A scattering of Spanish words adds zest to this fine read-aloud." --Booklist, "Austin's cockroach dwelling is a desirable piece of real estate, with its stairs made of gum wrappers, its wrought-plastic comb railing, and its exclusive mid-Havana address (it's a lamppost).

The text flows easily." -- Criticas, * STARRED REVIEW * "...a spicy original retelling...attractive and culturally evocative acrylic illustrations are an effective match with the hilarious story." -- Book Links "...gorgeously illustrated..." -- Fort Worth Star-Telegram "Audio books have also gained acceptance as a type of reading, thanks to great recordings like 'Martina the Beautiful Cockroach,' written and narrated by Carmen Agra Deedy..." -- Jon Scieszka, Ambassador for Children's Literature

  • Martina the Beautiful Cockroach

    I like it. Didn't relize I bought audio, but it worked out because my son needs help reading the Spainish words and is independent so it helps out a lot because he can read it on his own and it's a summer reading book he had to read. Good book. He liked it.
