'Children will love the bright, bold paint strokes that provide the illustrations. This book is ideal for paired reading or sharing with a small group.' Nursery Education 'Dual language books of such quality are few and far between.' Early Years Educator 'This publisher, Milet, has a delicious contemporary feel, like the colour is wet on the page.' Families

A French and English guessing game for small children whose parents or teachers hope to improve their English/French language skills by playing it. 'Qui Suis Je' - 'Who Am I' the riddle asks - the clue is 'Je fair du bon lair blanc paur les enfants' or 'I make a drink thats milky and white and helps you sleep tight'. The answer is on the opposite page - a picture covered by a flap - on the flap is a picture of an udder - lift the flap and there is a picture of a cow - under the flap you have the answer in words - 'La Vache' - 'A Cow'. There are twenty one riddles in all - each a subject from the animal world. A brightly coloured book printed on hardboard and therefore fairly indestructable for small children. None of the lines are direct translation but are easy colloquial ways of saying the same thing in a different language. Miller Publishing have published three other titles in this series: 'What am I?', 'I Can Fly, What Am I?' and 'I Have Wheels, What Am I?'. French/English without tears perhaps - a good start to being a little European. (Kirkus UK)
