Formerly an editorial director at Random House BFYR, Jen Arena has written over 50 books for kids, including fiction and nonfiction, licensed and original.

Blanca Gómez is an illustrator living and working in Madrid, Spain. She started doing illustrations for her mother when she was a kid; now she makes illustrations for clients around the world, for her own shop catalog and, of course, sometimes for her mom too.
"Each two-page spread features a bouncy rhyme in English followed by the perky Spanish refrain. Gomez's cute and blocky illustrations in cheery colors clearly depict each character, and a picture glossary at the end defines each Spanish word. Little ones will be delighted by the happy faces and affectionate world little bebé explores."
