Lolo and Birdie: I'm Hungry! / ¡Tengo Hambre! (Spanish Bilingual)

Angela Dominguez

A bilingual picture book that's sweet enough to eat about a chatty bluebird and an indecisive T. Rex who can't decide what his next meal should be, introducing readers to basic Spanish and English food vocabulary.

When a bluebird comes upon a dinosaur who's down in the dumps, he asks what's wrong.

"¡Tengo hambre!" says the dinosaur. I'm hungry!

Does the dinosaur want a banana?
"¿Plátano? No."

Fish?
"¿Pescado? No, gracias."

Nothing seems to do the trick! What does dinosaur want to eat? This delightful bilingual picture book is about finding just the right food--and just the right friend. Perfect for fans of We Don't Eat Our Classmates and Stegothesaurus.

Praise for this book

"An amusing bilingual repartee that just might stir up an appetite for friendship." -Kirkus

"Set against a plain white background, simply styled, expressive art supports the pair's polyglot exchange, making for a read that subtly grows reader vocabulary across both languages."-Publisher's Weekly
