Staff Review: "Senor Pancho Had a Rancho" by Rene Colato Lainez

"Old MacDonald Had a Farm" is a classic song that all preschool children know and love.  This new book tells the story of Old MacDonald and his Spanish speaking counterpart, Senor Pancho.  "Senor Pancho Had a Rancho" has a farm animal on each page and features English and Spanish words.  There is a great pronunciation guide in the front of the book for those of you who (like myself) don't speak Spanish.  Try something new and pick up a bi-lingual book next time you're in the library! You can go to the Holiday House publishers website for a bonus activity sheet to go with the story.
