This vibrant, engaging assortment offers children an entertaining
introduction to the French language. From stories of friendship,
family, discovery, and self-esteem to silly, snappy songs of
one-of-a-kind barnyard animals, lullabies, and segments of
classical music, children tune in to a variety of musical styles
and multicultural experiences. The accompanying CDs provide
children an opportunity to hear the pronunciation of the words and
sing along as they learn the language. Young Leo sets off to
discover the world--the five peninsulas near his seaside home. His
mother approves, knowing Leo will finally meet the eccentric
friends of his father who disappeared at sea. After all Leo's old
enough to be "the captain of his own boat" as the song he likes to
sing goes. In addition to featuring a production of the narrated
story, the accompanying CD presents 11 tunes ranging from "Faire un
bateau" (Making a Boat) and "La vie de matelot" (The Life of a
Sailor) to "Larguer les amarres" (Cast Off) sung by noted French
and Canadian singers such as Robert Charlebois and Diane Dufresne.
