I Love Saturdays y Domingos by Alma Flor Ada


This book has a great multicultural theme. It teaches children to learn to incorporate Spanish with english, which is so important in our school systems today. The book also has a great message about family. The girl in the story looks forward to seeing her grandparents every weekend which gives children a good message about staying close to the ones you love. It is inportant to recognize other cultures in the classroom as well as embrace these cultures. This book gives both the students and the teacher the chance to learn more about the Hispanic culture in general. I enjoyed this positive story.
