Moon Rope/Un Lazo a La Luna: Bilingual English-Spanish

by Lois Ehlert, Lois Ehlert (Illustrator)

Overview

Fox wants to go to the moon. Mole does not--at least not until he hears about the huge worms waiting up there for him to eat. So the two of them set off on their adventure, with a little help from a rope of grass and their friends the birds. The bilingual text and bold art showcase Lois Ehlert at her captivating best.
