At The French Library Get Directions
About this Event
We invite parents and children to gather in the children's room of our médiathèque for a magical story time in French! Each month will feature a new selection of stories around a theme, read by one of our teachers. This informal activity is a great opportunity to attune your child's ear to French and get them comfortable in an immersive French environment.
What we'll be reading
This month our reader is Hélène Pasquier, who specializes in teaching French as a foreign language. Hélène will be reading three stories about little pigs that will be sure to make your little ones oink (or grouin)!
de Pierrick Bisinski
Shlac! Shlac! Papa fait du découpage dans du papier noir. Au début ce ne sont que des formes sans queue ni tête, et voilà qu’une fois assemblées… C’est un loup ! Heureusement, il suffit de déplacer quelques morceaux et… surprise!
de Marion Billet
Un mot, une image, un son. Il suffit d'appuyer sur les puces sonores pour découvrir les cris des bébés animaux! Agneau, ânon, poussins, chiot, chaton et porcelet: autant d'animaux qui, dessinés par Marion Billet, feront craquer petits et grands!
de Phillipe Jalbert
Qui n'aime pas les secrets de Petit Cochon?
