Getting to Know Germany: And German

Five fascinating titles take kids on travel tours with cartoon-style illustrations, texts packed with facts, and foreign words and phrases that help introduce a new language to young readers. Except for the Britain volume, the last six pages place special emphasis on the new language, presenting lists of useful foreign-language phrases. Getting to Know France and Getting to Know Spain can be purchased with optional sixty-minute audiocassettes, so that kids can hear the sound of the spoken language.
