This book, Vol. 6 in the series, includes appealing color photos and illustrations of animals to capture and maintain your child's attention and interest. The words were carefully selected and meticulously crafted into sentences appropriate for the Level 2 age group. Many words are re-entered to aid comprehension and reading. Toddlers will be able to name some animals and repeat words and phrases. Pre-schoolers will be able to read the short, easy sentences. It is suggested that only one language be read at a time. Start with the child's first or "native" language for several reading sessions, then introduce the second language. At no time should the two languages be read during the same session.This volume should be of interest to English speakers who want to teach their child(ren) Spanish as well as Spanish speakers who wish to teach their child(ren) English. In addition, speakers of other languages will find the book useful for teaching their child(ren) both Spanish and English.These bilingual print books and bilingual ebooks are suitable for the bilingual education of young people from infant to early elementary school.. These bilingual print books for children and the bilingual ebooks for children can play a major role in any bilingual or ESL education program for children. There are four levels for each topic or title making it easier for ESL or bilingual children to progress from one level to the next. Level 1 is for infants and toddlers and would be primarily read by parents to their young children. Level 2 is for toddlers and pre-schoolers and could be used by parents for the younger children or by day care and pre-school personnel in environments where an English/Spanish bilingual component is included in the program. Level 3 is for pre-schoolers through kindergarten. And level 4 is intended for K-2. Parents, caregivers, and teachers should not hesitate to use a lower level book with an older child who is just beginning bilingual language study or whose age does not match his knowledge and ability in the language. While a child may be at the age for grade 2, his language learning “age” may be at the toddler or pre-school level. There is a full range of topics, 20 volumes in all, in the series of English/Spanish print books and English/Spanish ebooks that provide a thorough preparation in English/Spanish education. English/Spanish print books for children and English/Spanish ebooks for children readily contribute to English/Spanish bilingual education for children. Offering children's print books as well as children's ebooks provides parents, caregivers, and teachers with a choice and flexibility of format to meet the needs of child education. Children's bilingual print books have the advantage of convenience of use while children's bilingual ebooks include media and are easier to store, making children's bilingual education more accessible and convenient than ever before.
