Read an Excerpt



Buzz. Buzz. Qué oyes? (What do you hear?)
Las abejas (The bees) circling the flowers.


Woosh. Woosh. What do you hear?
El viento (The wind) is whistling by.


Shh. Shh. Qué oyes? (What do you hear?)
Las hojas (The leaves) are dancing on the trees.

About the Author:
Talia Aikens-Nuñez wanted to be a meteorologist, a politician and a lawyer. She never thought she would be an author. It was the birth of her daughter that caused her to start writing. Raising a bilingual child inspired Talia to write multicultural children’s books.


Talia’s family loves nature so much that she and her husband vowed that they willalways try to live close to water. She and her family live in Connecticut with a little pond.
