We got this bok because we are trying to teach our 5 yr old some basic French. This book is great for colors and animals and the repetitive nature of the ryhmes make it easy for the child to learn. Since she knew and loved the english version, this was a great wya to learn some french.

I recomend this with Bonsoir Lune (Goodnight Moon), Devine Combien Je t' Aime (Guess How Much I Love You) and
La Chenille Qui Fait Des Trous (The Very Hungry Caterpillar). These are books your child already know by heart and are a great way to introduce a second language to your young child.

I purchased this book as a supplement to my lesson on colors in French. The children LOVED it. They were able to follow it because it was translated relatively closely to the English version. I will use it again when we work on animals.

Very simple book to read with interesting pictures that would provoke an interesting discussion with a child. Like the book, would have preferred this French language edition to be hardback.

This is the second grandchild I've bought this for. The first reads it to me in English and I read to her in French - trying to reverse the process - she's capable, just stubborn. Great book in any language!

I have used this book successfully in the classroom several times now. It is simple and repetitive enough for even little children to predict and use to learn colors and animals. I use it with older kids to show how the color comes after the noun. It also works well for teaching because the end serves as a great review of the book. Highly recommended.
