Customer Rating:
Summary: Great book but what with the title translation ?
Comment: Great book. I had it when I was a kid (in French).
My daughter is now enjoying it in English and Spanish, and will get the French version as well.
Question remains as to why "The Very Hungry Caterpillar" stayed "La Oruga Muy Ambrienta" in Spanish but became "La Chenille qui fait des trous" in French (The caterpillar who makes holes)... Nothing wrong with "La chenille qui avait tres faim!" in my humble opinion.
Great work anyway by Carle, like other books we enjoy (Brown Bear, 10 Little Rubber Ducks...)

Customer Rating:
Summary: Great story to have in French, but cheap edition
Comment: In general, I am not a big Eric Carle fan. Some of his books I do not care for at all, while others I do like. This one, however, I think is wonderful. It is my favorite of his books. I like how it incorporates the days of the week, different foods, and the life cycle of a caterpillar. I like that my toddler can learn all these things in French, and he likes being able to put his little fingers through the holes made by the hungry caterpillar. I think this is a GREAT book to have in one's French children's library. The only thing keeping me from rating it five stars is the quality of the binding. It appears to be very flimsy/cheap, and I seriously wonder how long it would last if I allowed my three-year-old to look at it on his own. I really wish Amazon would offer this classic in hardcover, or at least in a better quality paperback.

Comment: La Chenille Qui Fait Des Trous Love it! Exactly what I was looking for.

Customer Rating:
Summary: Great for French instruction, but am I saying it right?
Comment: I'm a language teacher (Spanish) and am bilingual. My goal is to introduce our four children to French as well as Spanish, so I'm taking a stab at doing all the things I suggest to other parents for learning Spanish. It's hard, when you don't know the language! I worked through Flip Flop French: Ages 3-5: Level 1, which comes with a CD, the first two lessons, and then read this book with the children, and they enjoyed it (we have it in Spanish and English as well.)

I'm writing this review today because I heard the boys (4 and 5 years old) sounding out the words, and saying..."wait, you don't say the end in French, just in Spanish." So, it's working!

I do hope I can find an audio version, though, as I know my French accent probably sounds very Spanish!


Customer Rating:
Summary: Excellent, fun language tool
Comment: This is a very good book for teaching young children some French basics.

The approach is good stylistically as well - it is not as pedantic as some of the less sophisticated books and stories can be crafted with this as the basis.

Devine Combien Je t Aime (Guess how much I love you) is also lovely - and a must-buy for anyone hoping to instill a love of the French language in their children at an early age.
