Bebé Goes Shopping

SUSAN MIDDLETON ELYA is the author of more than fifteen books for children, including the Say Hola to Spanish series, illustrated by Loretta Lopez, and Oh No, Gotta Go!, a Junior Library Guild Selection, illustrated by G. Brian Karas. Susan taught Spanish for ten years, and now lives in northern California with her husband, three children, and two dogs. She used to shop with babies, and although they were cute, they were never very helpful!
