Praise for Leo's First Vote:
“[A] lively picture book...Marvelously textured, dimensional cut-paper, oil pastel, and acrylic artwork clearly delineates the step-by-step of voting in this spot-on depiction of a child’s anxiety and excitement around a crucial process.”
—Publishers Weekly, starred review.
A timely and informative title about the election process in the U.S. from a child’s perspective, with an emphasis on community and participation. Highly recommended for Spanish-language collections.
