Book Reviews of Bonsoir Lune / Goodnight Moon (French Edition)
Book Review: A great way for your child to learn french
Summary: 5 Stars
We got this bok because we are trying to teach our 5 yr old some basic French. This book is great for naming objects and the repetitive nature of the ryhmes make it easy for the child to learn. Since she knew and loved the english version, this was a great way to learn some french.
I recomend this with Ours Brun, Dis-Moi (Brown Bear What Do You See), Devine Combien Je t' Aime (Guess How Much I Love You) and La La Chenille Qui Fait Des Trous (The Very Hungry Caterpillar). These are books your child already know by heart and are a great way to introduce a second language to your young child.
Book Review: Fun & easy reading
Summary: 5 Stars
This story is a favorite of mine in english and, now that I'm teaching french to my children, it has become a favorite of theirs in french! It's easy reading and fun with great illustrations. I was extremely pleased that Amazon had Bonsoir Lune available and my children and I highly recommend it!Book Review: Great for teaching French!
Summary: 5 Stars
My family loves this book! We read Bonsoir Lune to our toodler, preschooler and middle schoolers (who are taking French). It is a fantastic companion to the English version, which we read before/after the French version. I only wish I could find it in hard cover (boardbook)!Book Review: mediocre translation
Summary: 4 Stars
The translation is literal - good for anglophone kids looking to learn a few nouns in French, but doesn't stand on its own as a kids' book for francophone kids. It doesn't have the rhythm of the English version and it doesn't rhyme.
Also, I disagree with their choice of "Bonsoir" instead of "Bonne Nuit." In my opinion "Good Night Moon" means good night more in the sense of "sleep well" (bonne nuit) than "good evening" (bonsoir).
Book Review: Nice way to introduce French
Summary: 4 Stars
We purchased "Good Night, Moon" in both Spanish and French (as well as English) because our son loves the story o much and it seemed a good opportunity to expose him to other languages. As a non-native French speaker I find this book a bit harder to read that the Spanish version (seems an easier language to me), but we are still aving fun muddling through. My only complaint about this book is it's size - it's fairly small.
