Description

A long-standing favourite from Heather Amery and Stephen Cartwright, this jolly picture book of first words makes picture to word recognition fun
Amusing and colourful everyday scenes with objects from each scene labelled in French with English translations. Delightfully illustrated by Stephen Cartwright with lots to look and and talk about, and a yellow duck to find on each double page. Readers can listen to all the words read by a native French speaker at the Usborne Quicklinks Website.

Reviews

The book really does introduce children to just a hundred words in French without getting into confusing details such as grammar or sentence structure. Each brightly illustrated double page layout features a central scene, with items from the scene listed at the top of the page with their French and English words beneath them. In reading the book you simply go through the pages naming various objects in the pictures and discussing whats going on with your child. This is ideal for very young children as it means they can switch between enjoying the pictures and trying the new words. * Helium.com *
