Joyeux Noel: Learning Songs and Traditions in French (Teach Me) (Book & Audio CD) (French Edition)
Kindergarten-Grade 4—The Christmas traditions and songs of France are the foundation for this bilingual title designed for individual or small group use with non-speakers of French. The beautifully illustrated book, written by Judy Mahoney, features text in French with an English translation. The customs and traditions of the holiday season are explained through these songs. Seasonal recipes and a short vocabulary list are included at the back of the book. Among the 21 songs are "Dans la crèche (Away in a Manger)" "Un flambeau, Jeannette, Isabelle (Bring a Torch, Jeannette, Isabelle)," and "Douce nuit, sainte nuit (Silent Night)." The sound quality is clear and the voices are easy to understand.—Denise A. Garofalo, Astor Learning Center, Rhinebeck, NYCopyright © Reed Business Information, a division of Reed Elsevier Inc.
