This book was actually written by the famous boxer Oscar De La Hoya, and this is another book that is written in both Spanish and English. The main plot of the story is that Oscar, always a daydreamer, has forgotten about the neighborhood picnic! I think many students would be able to relate to this chronic daydreamer, and they would enjoy reading about the funny problems it causes. Oscar hurries to get ready for the picnic, and he takes a few silly shortcuts to get everything done. Nice illustrations follow him the whole way, and the story is just a fun read from beginning to end. I love that it's bilingual, and I am going to include a few books like this in my classroom to help my ESL students and other students who might be interested in learning about the Spanish language.
