| Publisher Description: "God Made This/Dieu a fait ceci" is an English/French bilingual book for children. This is Volume 5 in the series and this is Level 1 for infants to toddlers. The books in this juvenile non-fiction series are intended to teach reading in two languages; they are not "story" books. This book includes single words and pairs of words for the ear training of infants as well as toddlers. The pictures help infants associate sounds with symbols--images at first and ultimately words at the toddler level and beyond. Toddlers will be able to repeat words, word pairs, phrases, and brief sentences aided by the picture cues. They will gradually be able to read the words using the printed word as their cue. This volume presents images of the natural world around us and are of high interest to young children. The natural environment, earth, sky, water features, animals, flowers, fruits, vegetables, and a variety of types of people are included. The book teaches that "God made this." Color photos and illustrations were carefully selected to captivate your child's interest. Words and sentences were judiciously chosen and crafted to facilitate learning for both age groups. Words are re-entered throughout the book to help your child feel a sense of accomplishment. It is suggested that only one language be read at a time. Start with the child's first or "maternal" 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) French as well as French 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 French and English. The books are ideal for day care centers, preschools, and elementary schools that offer or wish to include bilingual education or ESL in their educational programs. These bilingual print books and ebooks are suitable for the bilingual education of young people from infant to early elementary school. These bilingual print books and 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. 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/French bilingual component is included in the program. Level 3 is for pre-schoolers through kindergarten. And level 4 is intended for K-2. There is a full range of topics, 20 volumes in all, in the series of English/French print and ebooks that provide a thorough preparation in English/French education. 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.
