I'm 20, and I bought this book for myself, and I'm so glad I did!! I am just beginning to learn french, so I needed an easy to read book. The story is very simple, but in each page there a english translation under the french, and it's so easy to learn the new words, I read it everyday before I go to sleep, and in a few days I can read and understand without looking at the english part. Plus, there's a picture dictionary at the back, with a guide on how to pronounce each word, which is so cool!! Extra Helpful , I'm going to get all the series.
If you aren't bilingual but would like your child to be....

This series of books is nice because they offer both the English and the French words side by side. My husband reads the English version, and I read the French.As another reviewer noted, neither the story nor the illustrations are exceptional, but they are nice enough, my 3-year-old likes it, and it allows my non-French-speaking husband to participate,
A New Favorite

I have been introducing French to my son since before he was born. He is now 18 months old and this story is one of his favorites (the other is 'I Want My Banana'). The artwork is simple and colorful and the rhythm of the English and French rolls easily off the tongue. I would also like to add that my son's English has not been hampered by a little foreign language here and there.
C'est magnifique!

My 6 year old was accepted into a French immersion kindergarten class, and these books have been extremely helpful. They reinforce the words he is learning in class and are easy for him to read in French or English, which allows him to boost his reading skills at the same time. The fact that it is in both languages helps me understand what he is reading, too.
