Bound To Stay Bound

Booklist - 09/01/2023 This fourth installment in the ¡Vamos! series follows Little Lobo and his friends as they eagerly attend their local Guadalupian Library’s Libro Love Book Festival. Raúl the Third’s signature illustration style—set off by exquisite color work from Bay that's busy with out-of-this-world animal characters who run their own vibrant universe, and brimming with vivacious energy—brings to life an exciting story that encourages young people to read. Along the way, the text includes Spanish vocabulary, placed near illustrations and highlighted by a red font, inspiring readers to learn terms in an additional language as well. Little Lobo, La Chida, Bernabé, Kooky Dooky, Coco Rocho, and their friends embark on a mission to find their own special book at the festival, but they soon discover that there’s something for everyone there, from a costume contest to balloons to zine creating to face painting. Readers will be immersed in the detailed world, which feels inspired by old-school comic books, cereal-box games, and Where’s Waldo–like puzzle books, all while learning useful terms in Spanish.HIGH-DEMAND BACKSTORY: Thanks to their award-winning creators, the ¡Vamos! books (plus the El Toro & Friends series) have become modern classics. Every addition to this world is cause for celebration. - Copyright 2023 Booklist.
