Win a copy just comment or email me - thanks

Title:  Bosley Sees the World 

Review:  A cute childrens book with English and Spanish - the story can be read it either language and enjoyed by you and your child - many families are bilingual - I have a friend who speaks both Spanish and English and they want their son to grow up speaking both so that neither is new or different to him.  This would be a great book for them - also in this case his wife is just learning English so this is a book she could read to her son in Spanish and as she is learning English in English also.

The illustrations are big and bold giving the reader extra clues to what the words are saying about Bosley.  This would also be a great book to have in any Elementary classroom so that all the students could be exposed to Spanish and what it looks like on paper.

Inclusion is so important and this would help those who are new to this country and just learning English to feel more a part of the classroom - this book comes in many different languages so language option is not an issue.

I would recommend this book to all parents and elementary teachers.

I am a blogger and received this item for an honest review.

Description:  This dual-language children's book is written in English as well as one of the following languages:  French, German, Spanish, Italian, Russian, Portuguese, Chinese, Japanese, Hindi.

Follow Bosley Bear as he discovers how big the world is and how much there is to explore and learn. Bosley is a confident and curious little bear who looks for new challenges around every corner. This is a dual language book is designed to help teach your child new words and phrases.
The teaching methods used in this book allow children to learn at their own pace and enjoy the learning process.
These methods include:
Repeat words
Simple phrases
Opposites
Highlighted vocab words
Contextual learning
Corresponding imagery

For children, learning a new language in the context of a story is such a powerful learning tool, because they can use the images, characters and plot to help them remember words and phrases.
Even simple foreign words and phrases can give a child a completely new perspective and open their eyes to new ways of seeing the world.
