Animals

This is the translated text to "Animals" by SAMI. This is a really beautiful interactive toddler book (although perfect for the kindergartners learning a new language!)

Please note that we could not find (nor could anyone help us find) the word for raccoon, which is an animal in this book. The children always giggle when we get to this page, because we simply say "raccoon" in English. It's become our little joke.
