Hello, Ocean by Pam Munoz Ryan illustrated by Mark Astrella translated by Yanitzia Canetti*

I was at an used bookstore this weekend and spied this title-it is one I have been wanting to purchase.  This copy included both Spanish and English texts on each page.
A girl describes her day at the ocean using her five senses.
When my preschooler and I read the line "I'm here, with five of me, again!", we had fun trying to infer what that line meant.
What I love mostly about this book is its word choice and beautiful illustrations.
Strategies: inferring, ***a top pick for modeling/introducing visualizing
**Highly recommend.
