The book, Vamos Let's Go To The Market, is about two characters Lobo (the main character ) and Bernabe (his dog), Lobo delivers goods to people while Bernabe is his companion. Their task is to deliver goods to the people who ordered them. Lobo and his dog travel all throughout the town to deliver his goods; they both discover and see many new things along the way. Lobo seems like a very friendly character and a social butterfly, as he was traveling all over the town everyone seemed to know him and even if they didn't know him they still said hello, not to mention Lobo said hi to everyone and asked things about their day.

Lobo is a perfect role model for the age group this book is trying to reach. The book's mood is very upbeat and energetic, this is perfect for the younger kids age group. The book mentions many Spanish words, and gives the definitions at the back of the book, everything is labeled and descriptive. This is a useful tool when trying to learn Spanish, or wanting to teach younger kids Spanish. As you go deeper into the story and analyze it then you realize the plot is slightly mediocre. There is no challenge they face and need to overcome or no lessons to be taught. This book just outlines the discovery of things the main characters saw on their journey. Although there is a negative about this book there was one thing that truly stood out when analyzing the book, the art style/visuals. The visuals of the book truly outlines Mexican culture and the many different traditions and values along with it. Each picture was meaningful and important when analyzing it. These visuals also teach others who are not familiar with Mexican culture a little bit about it.
