Reviews for Brazil (Brazilian Portuguese / English) (Our World)

“In the Our World series, this book shows vibrant scenes from Brazil, then simple sentences in both English and Portuguese, plus a smattering of phonetics . . . Armchair traveling for the youngest, or a way for them to learn about faraway relatives and new words” – School Library Journal
