Omar, el jaguar is a book written in Spanish aimed at children aged 3-6 years old. This is the first book of a series where the main characters are animals that are native to the Americas. Unlike many resource materials for this age level, this story introduces the language in a contextualized way, where the child can learn new words and expressions while enjoying an entertaining story.

Even though this can be used in isolation, just for the pleasure of reading, this is also an ideal resource for Spanish teachers or home school parents who understand Spanish. There is an educator's guide to this book with lesson plans, templates, and project-based suggestions.

Omar, el jaguar delivers two powerful messages: the importance of protecting our land, and the fact that accepting diversity enrichens us and enables us to connect with other people. Beautifully illustrated, Omar, el jaguar will surely become a favorite in any classroom or home.
