This review is from: Oh, wie schön ist Panama (Hardcover)

I love this book. It is so adorable. It is the story of a tiger and a bear that set out to find Panama after finding a crate marked 'Panama' floating down the river. Of course it is in German, but anyone who has taken a year or two of high school German should be able to understand it.

4.0 out of 5 stars Panama ist sehr schoen!, March 19, 2003

This review is from: Oh, Wie Schon Ist Panama (German Edition) (Paperback)

I was introduced to this story in my high school German class. Oh wie schoen ist Panama tells the story of two friends: a little tiger and a little bear. The two find a raft that is from Panama and decide that Panama is the land of their dreams. Tiger and Baer set off for Panama, meeting many other animals along the way.

This is a great story, especially for children and students of German. Although the storyline is fairly predictable and simple, the illustrations are adorable, especially the Tiger-Ente (tiger-duck). Anyone who enjoys children's books and knows some elementary German will fall in love with Tiger and Baer (just make sure you have a German-English dictionary handy)!

This review is from: Oh, wie schön ist Panama (Hardcover)

This book is really cute. It is a great book for beginning Germans (I mean people who are just learning German) to read. I am really glad that Janosh decided to write this book, so that our class should read it. Oh and the rabbit.....he's great!
