One of the best ways to learn a (foreign) language is through a lot of listening, active and passive. And, if this is accompanied by an amusing, cute, yet educational (bilingual) story with great illustrations, catchy rhymes based on the tunes of traditional English and American songs, fun activities, a colouring section, and narrated and sung by a native speaker, the results are guaranteed. All the books from the series Chimmy and Other (Bilingual) Stories include the elements mentioned above and will be offered as monolingual (English) and bilingual (English-Italian, English-Croatian, and English-Spanish and English-Slovenian and English-German soon).
