Description

This illustrated story has been designed for bilingual children and others wishing to read a parallel text in English and Spanish. For ease of understanding, the languages are displayed together just one or two sentences at a time.
The aim was to make translation as direct as possible but always using everyday language of native speakers.

Basil, Rosemary and the Pansy sisters are lively, chatty little plants. They think they know some stuff, but when it comes to this animal, they know nothing. One wild assumption leads to another and gets them into big trouble.

Excerpt from the story –
The Pansy sisters lived in a red flowerpot in the town square. They shared the pot with Basil, Rosemary, and Pig.
Las hermanas Pensamiento vivían en una maceta roja en la plaza del pueblo. Compartían el tiesto con Albahaca, Romero, y Cerdito.

The Pansy sisters had beautiful blue coloured flowers. They looked very good next to the young green plants, Basil and Rosemary.
Las hermanas Pensamientos tenían hermosas flores de color azul. Se veían muy bien al lado de las jóvenes plantas verdes, Albahaca y Romero.
