"Chicago local author Martinez’s debut picture book is a delightful story about Rio and his family as they visit the Brookfield Zoo. On each page, Rio makes a connection to a different animal, inviting young readers to do the same. The bright and cheery illustrations by Gallardo bring life to the subject matter and  the bilingual Spanish/English text will be welcomed by dual language families.  Planned as the first in a series with the aim of encouraging families to take part in available public institutions and outdoor activities, this book will appeal to parents and educators, and will make a great addition to public and school library collections. "

From Spanish language learners in elementary school.

 "Great book to have especially if you want to experience the Chicago attractions.  Purchased the books for a school event. Author came to do a read aloud for students, they were thrilled and loved her books.  Author signed copies for all the students." Veronica Ortiz, Sandoval Elementary School.

Migdalia Jimenez, MLIS, Librarian, Chicago Public Library

"As in the previous books, readers will delight in the lively illustrations and  the fun family times depicted on the pages.  Highly recommended for all public and school libraries, but especially those with bilingual, English and Spanish speaking communities."
