I just got a student 2 weeks ago from Columbia who speaks really no English. I’ve looked to see if this book has been translated into Spanish in any form. Trying to figure out ways to include him in the experience as he will not understand the text. Very excited about the use of Spanish words in the book. So excited to read it next week.
