Martin Gil | 11 comments Read this book with a Spanish-language Kindergarten class. I know in Spanish it is called Ni Tanto, but it didn't come up when I searched that title on Goodreads, and I don't know the title in English, nor to I remember the author. The cover and all the artwork are black animal silhouettes over a lime green background. The story follows a frog going around to the other animals and commenting on their interesting features, and then another animal will come in with a more interesting feature. For example, the frog goes to an anteater and says "what a big nose you have!" and then an elephant comes and says "ni tanto!" because it obviously has a bigger nose. There's also a chameleon with a long tongue, an ostrich and giraffe with long necks, a fish with a flat body. Again, I couldn't find it here with the Spanish title, so maybe someone can point me to the English listing.
