Julia Aprende Ingles (Language Learner Series) - Tapa dura

Spanish-speaking boys and girls in early grades receive a fun-filled, informal introduction to English in this picture book, supplemented with an interactive CD–ROM. The little girl in this story visits the United States, and vivid full-page illustrations show scenes of her arrival at the airport, being driven to the home where she will stay as a guest, enjoying lunch in the kitchen, then playing at a beach, visiting a farm, exploring a town and its shops, going to a party, and finally returning to the airport for her flight home. All illustrations are filled with objects that kids will immediately recognize, each object labeled to identify it in English. Each two-page spread also features a lift-the-flap phrasebook, in which the words are spelled out phonetically. The accompanying CD–ROM is filled with spoken examples of English to familiarize Spanish-speaking kids with its sound, plus fun-to-play language-learning games. (Ages 7–10)
