Title Description of Story

The Three Little Pigs Plot: The classic tale of three pigs who
build their houses and encounter a
Los tres cerditos troublesome wolf.

Why we like it: This bilingual version has
both English and Spanish on each page
and makes use of rhythm and rhyming.
This story is great for working on
sequencing and retelling, along with
providing many articulation targets in both
English and Spanish (/r/, /s/, /l/, /d/,
/th/).

The Three Bears Plot: Classic story of Goldilocks
misadventures exploring the three bears’
Los tres osos home.

Why we like it: Using a story that many
children are often familiar with can
provide them with confidence in targeting
retell skills. It also provides ample
opportunities for language targets such as
family members, size, object/function as
well as expected behaviors.

The Three Billy Goats Plot: Three billy goats attempt to cross a
bridge and outsmart a troublesome troll.
Gruff
Why we like it: Another classic story that
Los tres chivitos children may be familiar with provides
opportunities for describing, comparing,
contrasting and working on sequencing
and story retelling skills.

The Carrot Seed Plot: A little boy plants a carrot seed and
faithfully cares for it, waiting for it to
La semilla de zanahoria grow, teaching patience to children.

Why we like it: Although this story is very
simple, younger children can enjoy it for
learning members of the family, steps to
planting a seed, and labeling action
words. This book can also serve as an
introduction to teaching vegetables as well
as targeting /r/ clusters in Spanish.
