Ideal for Primary French or beginners and now for
those starting Spanish as well. Berthe is an elderly,
but seriously cool witch. She can handle anything,
from the very odd game of rugby, to a night out
with her strange friends, to a cookery session that
goes with a bang! Her constant companion is her
ice-cream loving cat - the dark, silent type who has
a lot to put up with.
Now there is the recently released Berthe et le
Miroir Magique. Berthe buys an antique mirror. She
is warned that it is magic, but all ends in disaster
anyway. This is a great book for teaching colours in
French.
Due to popular demand some of the Berthe the
Witch series of books are now available in simple
Spanish. ¡Hola Berta! and La Semana de Berta cover the
same ground as the French books and have the story,
vocabulary list, word search and game.
