A little mouse enters the Lost & Found but can only speak German. Mr. and Mrs. Frog must figure out what the mouse is missing. Aimed at children aged 2-7, this unique approach combines humor, story, and emotion to introduce over forty simple German words and phrases. Parents have noted that children are so engaged with the story that they don’t realize they are learning. This bilingual children’s book lays the groundwork for a love of languages, making the experience feel enjoyable rather than like homework. The Story-Powered Language Learning Method differs from traditional bilingual books by creating an emotionally engaging narrative that children and adults can enjoy together. Studies show that social interaction is crucial for language learning. The relatable character who speaks only in German fosters empathy and a positive attitude toward different languages, essential for lasting language acquisition. As the story unfolds, children naturally learn new words and phrases, with humor enhancing their enjoyment and reinforcing the learning experience. The author, Mark Pallis, believes in the joy of learning new languages and aims to help children engage with a new language while having fun. This book is designed to be an enjoyable story that subtly introduces language learning, allowing parents and children to share a delightful experience together.

Da sie kein Deutsch spricht und Herr und Frau Frosch kein Englisch, zeigen sie ihr einfach ein Fundstück nach dem anderen, vom Regenschirm bis zur Perückensammlung. Was für ein buntes Sammelsurium! Ob die Mütze wohl noch auftaucht? In diesem zauberhaft illustrierten Bilderbuch lernen Kindergartenkinder die ersten 50 Wörter auf Englisch: book, cheese, key, trouser und vieles mehr. Am Ende des Buches werden die in der Geschichte neu erlernten Wörter noch einmal in einer Vokabelliste aufgeführt. Ausstattung: durchgehend farbige Abbildungen
