Review by Kirkus Book Review

A Spanish/English primer infused with an element of fun and games reinforces both language and visual skills. The follow-up to Loteria: First Words (2018) brings even more vocabulary to young readers. Bright, clean graphics and easy-to-read labels adorn the double-page spreads. Each of the 10 vocabulary words that appear in the book are taken from the traditional Mexican lotería card game. The Spanish term (including the article, to indicate gender) is printed in bold type above the English translation against a colorful background on verso. On recto, the classic lotería cards have each been given a cute makeover that will appeal to young audiences--from the vibrant red ketchup bottle representing "la botella" to the fanged but friendly-looking black spider, or "la araña." Readers who have enjoyed playing the lotería game will appreciate the cultural connection, and those who aren't familiar with it yet will still delight in the appealing illustrations and novel vocabulary. Children will be engaged with the opportunity to learn words in two languages. The mermaid and musician are depicted with pale and very light brown skin, dark brown hair, and blue and green eyes, respectively. This simple and sweet bilingual vocabulary book is a winner.
