I find this book very intriguing because I once took French classes in High School for two years and would like to pass on the language to my nieces and nephews. I believe this book isn't just great for children, but for people of all ages that are new to French & English or could use a refresher. The paragraphs alternate between English and French making it easy to see how words relate and sentence structures differ. The addition of audio really brings to life the stories along with learning pronunciation and is narrated in both languages as well. This is a great educational tool and the stories are enjoyable.
The male voice reading the French is much softer than the English versions of the story, so it's a loud change when the language changes. Wouldn't you assume the listener would listen to both the English and French together, and make them the same volume? Also, although the French reader's voice is pleasant, it's not articulated well. I can't help but wish the readers were reversed.
I stumbled across this book the other day and downloaded it onto my kindle fire.I must say that this book exceeded my expectations. I always wanted to become familiar with the french language. I figured this would be a great way to learn. The book is innovative and has a great selection of bedtime stories. I'd say this is the perfect way to bond and learn a new language with a child. The text is organized into paragraphs; French first then English. Also, I love that this book has audio included. It's so helpful because it's easier to learn how to comprehend and pronounce each word in French when you hear it.I would highly recommend purchasing this book. It's affordable, fun and educational.
