Hello, everyone!Today I'm going to review the Get Ready for Gabi!: A Crazy Mixed-Up Spanglish Day by Marisa Montes.
Gabi is a feisty Spanish girl who is very proud that she can speak both English and Spanish fluently. She's got two best friends by her side- Devin and Jasmine- and an amazing, fun family. Her brother Miguelito is probably the best- well, noisy- brother you could ever imagine, her Papi, the absent-minded scientist, her Mami, a strict but kind mother and her Abuelita, the BEST GRANDMA EVER. Gabi's ready for anything, with her trusty sidekick, her red leather boots.
Okay... maybe not everything... Her worst enemy Johnny Wiley is totally driving her crazy. He's making her best friends upset and making her Little Buddy, Ceci, cry.
And now she's stuck with him for a whole month in a group project, along with Sissy Huffer, not a good friend. Then her Abuelita visits. Things could't get much worse, could they? That's what Gabi thinks until she finds out her Grandma SNORES. Now she can't sleep!
Gabi's so mad and tired that she can't speak properly. All her English words get mixed up with her Spanish words! Nobody understands what she's saying.
Will Gabi ever make sense again?
Marisa Montes has written the other books in this series: Who's That Girl?, No More Spanish, Please Don't Go, and All in the Familia.
I recommend this book for ages 7-10.
