Book Reviews of Bonsoir Lune / Goodnight Moon (French Edition)
Book Review: A little disappointed...
Summary: 3 Stars
In the size and quality of this product. It is exactly how it is described, but in my mind I was picturing the english version. The colors aren't as good, and the translation loses a lot of the charm of the story, but it is still a good tool for anyone teaching their child a second language.Book Review: Nice Book
Summary: 3 Stars
I purchased this book for a French co-worker expecting her first grandchild. This would be a 5 star if it was the "board-book" version. This one is paper-back and therefore a little flimsy especially as a gift.Book Review: poorly translated!
Summary: 1 Stars
The French translation for this book is not well done. I do not recommend it for anyone who is trying to teach their child proper French. The entire premise is that it's a bedtime book, and "Goodnight moon" implies saying goodnight as one goes to bed. "Bonsoir lune" implies more of a "good evening", as if one were being greeted in a restaurant for dinner. "Bonne nuit" would be a much more appropriate translation. This is just an example of several contextual as well as technical translating errors throughout the book.
