All the students in the class are assigned reading buddies, except for Adelaide. She already has one, a bear! And Adelaide is quite persuasive as she explains to her language arts teacher, Mrs. Fitz-Pea, and the reader, that bears really do make the best reading buddies: they sniff out good books and their claws are just right for turning pages. And the bear looks rather friendly (and studious) in these crayon-bright, contemporary illustrations, making this is must-read picture book for story time! Fully translated Spanish text. La maestra asigna compañeros de lectura a todos los niños, pero Adelaida ya tiene uno: su oso! Adelaida convencerá a su maestra y a los lectores de que no hay nada mejor que leer con un oso. Los osos tienen un gran olfato para los buenos libros y garras idelaes para pasar páginas. Y este oso parece muy simpático (y estudioso). Con ilustraciones modernas y coloridas, este es el cuento perfecto para leer en voz alta!
