Ratón Pérez
Pérez the Mouse
King Buby is six years old, and tonight he has lost his first tooth. That night a tiny mouse in a straw hat and gold glasses climbs onto his pillow, and with one sneeze the boy king is off through the secret tunnels of old Madrid. The original Ratón Pérez story, told in Spanish simple enough for your first weeks — warm, funny, and wiser than it looks.
