Aesock's Travels is a bilingual novel for young adults age 7-10, presenting the same story in both English and Spanish, under one cover. All one has to do is flip the book over to read the other language. Young Benjamin and Olivia embark on an amazing, magical adventure with Aesock, a mysterious creature with an affinity for finding lost socks. The crisp, clean prose is exciting, and provides a simple yet wondrous adventure in this story that is as engaging for adults striving to learn either English or Spanish as a second language as it is for young people.
