{"product_id":"9780977090624","title":"Paco and the Giant Chile Plant \/ Paco y la planta de chile gigante","description":"Paco and the Giant Chilé Plant \/ Paco y la planta de chile gigante is a bilingual (English\/Spanish) embedded text picture book with all the fun of a fairy tale twisted into a humorous variation. Based on the classic Jack and the Bean Stalk fairy tale, Polette uses the desert Southwest as an unexpected setting. Filled with prickly pears and such, our story moves from the sandy earth into a cloudy domain where anything is possible. A place where giants may bellow: \"FEE, FI, FO, FUM, I SMELL THE BLOOD OF A HUMAN ONE. BE HE THIN OR BE HE FAT, FOR MY TORTILLA, I'LL GRIND HIM FLAT!\" We might even solve the age old question of what happened to Jack's (Opps! Paco's) long lost Pappa.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe soft dusty feel of a desert is captured in Dulemba's illustrations. Timeless and funny, they carry you back to the books of your childhood and remind you of why you loved books and being read to as a kid. Deep pastel colors depicted through imaginative maneuvering in Adobe PhotoShop intensify and parallel the quick action of the story. A perfect mix of modern technology and classic illustration.                 \u003cbr\u003eThis book is embedded text format. The story is told in English and Spanish is sprinkled throughout the book within the context of the story.  A bilingual vocabulary page in English and Spanish is included to help readers learn keywords in either language.
