An excellent series of warm humorous stories which introduce everday French vocabulary in short sentences with lots of repetition. The stories are accompanied by enchanting colour illustrations, with both the French and English text appearing on each page.

In "I Want My Banana!", Monkey’s hungry, but he can’t find his banana. Some fearsome jungle creatures offer him tasty alternatives, but monkey isn’t convinced of their generosity.

Sentences are short and simple to read with a pronunciation guide and parental notes also included. An accompanying cassette, which features both the "Happy Birthday!" and "I Want My Banana!" stories is also available (product code P1050). Each story is read by native speakers in bilingual form and also in English alone and French alone, allowing for complete familiarisation with the story in both languages - a great way for young children to learn a second language naturally and with great ease!
