I liked this book, especially the hand-drawn illustrations. The book was fun and an excellent way to teach kids French. A glossary at the back would have been helpful for the reader to have pronunciations of all the French words in one location. I also would have loved to see more added to the plot...maybe Josette could have found a secret tunnel that revealed the long-lost family treasure, or she could have met a new friend. However, Ashley Davidson-Fisher certainly accomplished her goal of writing a beautiful French/English book.
