Rico (RJ in the English text) wakes up with gum in his hair, misses recess because he's late to school, and kicks the ball into his own team's soccer goal! After his mom helps him learn the skills of listening and following instructions, Rico finds that he can have the BEST day of his life. Tips for parents and Educators on how to reinforce the skills with children are included. Each colorfully illustrated page includes both the Spanish and English text. Great to use with children in grades K-6 who are learning to speak and read either language.
