<p>Beautifully illustrated true story of a French cat in English and French versions for upper primary and secondary students learning French. The two versions are matched page for page but they are written in idiomatic English and French so there is not a word-for-word match. The cat, called Pavarotti because of his loud voice, has an exciting life, full of dangers and troubles, but it ends happily.<br /> You would need to purchase the two editions (English and French) separately. Get the pupils to read the story in English first then they can try to make sense of the French text without referring to the English. Finally they can put the two together.<br /> NEW: we have recorded a voiced version of the French text to help with pronunciation.
