Du Iz Tak? by Carson Ellis

My kid is starting Spanish immersion preschool soon, so this was delightfully hilarious. MJ is only two, but she is super verbal and so the nonsense language in this book drove her crazy. I wouldn't say she enjoyed it, but it challenged her and she wanted to read it again and again trying to figure out the puzzle of what the nonsense words mean.
She also really enjoyed the freaky-looking spider. (Enough with cutesy spiders in picture books!

This kind of accidentally became a book about death for us because MJ was very concerned about what happened to the spider. I said the bird ate it. She still wanted to know what happened to it. I said it's gone. Her face was so serious. Where? I was like, TOO SOON. But then I recovered and said it was in the bird's stomach and she let us move on.
