Juana y Lucas
(Juvenile Spanish Language)

Translation of: Juana & Lucas.

"A Juana le gustan muchas cosas: dibujar, comer repollitas y vivir en Bogota, Colombia. Pero mas que nada, adora a su perro, Lucas. Lucas es su mejor amigo, absolutamente sin la mas minima duda. A Juana no le gusta su uniforme del colegio, que le pica mucho. Tampoco le gustan problemas de matematicas, ni las clases de baile. Sobre todo, a Juana NO le gusta aprender ingles. Todas las TH de ese idioma inoportuno le hacen cosquillas en la lengua, y muchas de las palabras no tienen ningun sentid para ella. Si read y read se escriben igual, por que se pronuncian de modo tan diferente? Hasta que el abuelo de Juana le cuenta de algo fantastico que tiene planeado y ahora Juana tiene toda la motivacion necesaria para trabajar muy duro y convertirse en una fuente de ingles!"--

"Juana's life is just about perfect. She lives in the beautiful city of Bogota with her two most favorite people in the world: her mami and her dog, Lucas. Lately, though, things have become a little less perfect. Mami has a new hairdo and a new amigo named Luis with whom she has been spending a LOT of time. He is kind and teaches Juana about things like photography and jazz music, but sometimes Juana can't help wishing things would go back to the way they were before. When Mami announces that she and Luis are getting married and that they will all be moving to a new casa, Juana is quite distraught. Lucky for her, though, some things will never change -- like how much Mami loves her."--Amazon.com.
