It's Fun to Speak French With Zozo: A Storybook in English and French

Summary: The kids in my french classrooms love, and REMEMBER, zozo
Review: The combination of useful and fun phrases (au secours!) and excellent, humorous sound effects caught the attention of my French students and my own children, who repeatedly ask to hear Zozo again. Best of all, it is a painless, entertaining (not patronizing) introduction to the first hundred French words in a audio context that makes each phrase supremely memorable. I was given another Teresa Scibor book/tape called "French Start - Learn First French through Songs and Games" which not only offered an excellent foundation for the children to happily learn a lot of French, but became a real "mentor" for me, ultimately teaching me how to approach teaching French to children in a joyful, engaging, memorable and understandable way. If you can find it, absolutely buy it. And what's best: if you don't speak a word of French, Teresa Scibor's work will teach you (if you want) as well as your kids.

Summary: Great for Kids 6 and under
Review: The meld of French and English goes so well that it is easy to follow. After listening to it several times, understanding of exactly what the French words are comes alive. It is a wonderful book to reinforce early language skills.
