'CHIP' HAS A DREAM WHICH YOUNG READERS SHOULD ENJOY

"Chip, the Little Computer" continues the series that gave us "Laughing Day" and "The Frog Who Couldn't Jump." Dr. Hope, J.A.P.D. (Just A Pretend Doctor) is the series creator and wrote the stories. Each tale has a moral, or life lesson, to teach the young readers.

While reading about Chip, young readers will enjoy learning the importance of believing in their dream. They will find that you must never give up. It may look impossible, but your dream can come true.

As a huge bonus, "Chip, the Little Computer" is written in English and Spanish. Life lessons are universal, after all.

Reading a book like this one is still one of the best ways to reinforce good lessons you want your children to learn. -- Waycross Journal-Herald, John Scott Cooper, J-H Correspondent

5.0 out of 5 stars A heartwarming bilingual story illustrating a "life lesson"., April 7, 2000

By	Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews

"Dr. Hope" is the author of three delightful, bilingual (English/Spanish) picture story books that teach young readers invaluable lessons that will stand them in good stead throughout their lives. Chip, The Little Computer is the heartwarming story of a little computer and how he learns the joy of helping children learn. All of the books are colorfully illustrated with pictures that showcase Dr. Hope's "life lessons". The bilingual format is ideal for young readers to enhance their learning of English and/or Spanish.

5.0 out of 5 stars 'Chip' inspires seven-year-old, October 29, 1999

By A Customer

I gave Chip, the Little Computer to my sons best friend who was turning seven. I couldn't have made a better choice. The next day the birthday boy was telling all his friends about this "cool" book that he had read to his dad all by himself. I feel that the books inspirational message was passed on to this little reader and a wonderful lesson was learned.

5.0 out of 5 stars My Favorite Story, March 17, 2000

By A Customer

I am in the third grade and we are starting to learn Spanish. When I told my teacher that I had a children's book at home that was English and Spanish she asked me to bring it in. All the kids loved Chip, the Little Computer and they all want to borrow it. My teacher said she was going to buy it on Amazon.com. It is a great book and it helped me with my Spanish so you should buy it too!
