A little bird falls in the snow. His friends come to help him! This sweet winter story is now available in Spanish.

Snow is fun, and snow is quiet-- but snow is heavy, too. A tiny bird is perched upon a branch that begins to strain under the weight of a heavy snowfall. When the branch breaks, the bird falls into the deep, deep snow. His friends--a bunny, two mice, a squirrel, and an owl--try to rescue him.

Luckily, little bird can fly! He can help himself. The friends rejoice. Snow is fun-- and snow is especially fun with friends.

With very simple Spanish text and bright wintry illustrations, this book is a lovely introduction to some basic Spanish vocabulary. 

¡Me gusta leer! provides emerging Spanish language readers with translations of popular I Like to Read® books.
