In the fourth title in the All About Rosa series, the shaggy-haired Rosa, dressed in gender-neutral clothes and bright yellow glasses, plays with toys traditionally associated with boys. Both indoors and out, the toddler is joined by her diverse friends Biba, Marcel, Mustafa, Sarah, and Samira, all rendered with simple expressions of engagement and curiosity. Rosa plays with diggers in a sandbox ("Dig-a-dig, dig-a-dig, scoop!"), uses a drill to fix a toy car, and builds a car from a cardboard box. Spanyol's message about nongendered play is so subtle, readers won't even see it--which is the whole point. Ages 1-3. (Oct.)
