Natalia Simons / Illus. Alessia Fraschetta
A bilingual story with the full text in English and French.
Meet Fabien, a little boy who visits France during the summer holidays. He's lucky to speak two languages but doesn't always feel it. While visiting his family over summer in France, he's teased by his cousins, who find the way he speaks funny. Fabien explores the local village, finding French food and culture, and learning from his wise grandparents. He even helps his cousins with their English, realising that being part of two cultures isn’t so bad… In fact, it’s Fabien’s superpower!
The Frenglish Boy / Le Garçon Franglais features the full text in both English and French and is an ideal story to share with children living in a bilingual French / English household. It would also be a good story to use in English for bilingual children of any background as it's a good story that reinforces the benefits of bilingualism and dual heritage.
