Reviews
"In a whirlwind tour of scenes from the United States and Israel, Bari introduces preschoolers to the English and Hebrew names for several animals and to the sounds we say those animals make in each language. 'What does a dog say?' A shaggy golden dog waves an American flag in front of the U.S. Capitol and says, 'Bow, wow, wow!' A pointy-eared kelev waves an Israeli flag in front of the Knesset and says, 'Hav, hav, hav!' Hebrew terms appear in transliteration only, with a pronunciation guide at the book's end, implying a target audience of native English speakers with a limited knowledge of Hebrew. Young preschoolers will enjoy learning animal names and sounds in multiple languages, and the reminder that, 'A cow and parah both say, 'Moo!' in English...and in Hebrew too!' adds a nice note of cross-cultural unity. The cheery background images highlight an arbitrary selection of emblematic sites in the United States and in Israel. While some sites are readily identifiable and may serve as conversation starters, caregivers may struggle to recognize others and a key is not included." -- Rebecca Fox, Children's Librarian II, Boston Public Library, Boston, MA, AJL, "OK, what new can you provide with yet another book teaching animals' sounds to young kids? Turns out if you have a few creative ideas even adults can enjoy this kind of book, that a parent has already seen plenty of. I certainly did, even after practicing animal sounds, bilingually already with my daughters as they were growing up. This book is also bilingual, meaning teaching the animals sounds both in English and in Hebrew. I already saw this kind of book, thus it was not a novelty for me. What surprised me though that the Hebrew versions of the animals' name was transliterated into English and used in the English sentences, e.g. 'a kelev says, hav hav hav.' Such a simple trick and the child learns a few fun Hebrew words beyond the sounds they make too.The other imaginative idea that I noticed was hiding in plain sight in the background. Each pair of sounds/animals had a representative picture of the two cultures behind them: American and Israeli. E.g. the White House vs. the Knesset or baseball vs a soccer field and so on. So the book is even more educational for those parents who care to explain it to their kids what they see there. And if they don't the children may even remember the images on their own later.Seems like nowadays every children book has to have an activity at the end and this book also complies with this newish trend. You or your child can search for a few small objects or animals on the pages of the book. The whole book is not just entertaining-while the illustrations are vivid-but also the educational bits do not feel forced. Your youngling will surely enjoy the book and so will you." -- Gabor Por, Jewish Book World, "Young preschoolers will enjoy learning animal names and sounds in multiple languages, and the reminder that, 'A cow and parah both say, 'Moo!' in English...and in Hebrew too!' adds a nice note of cross-cultural unity." -- Rebecca Fox, Children's Librarian II, Boston Public Library, Boston, MA, AJL

Synopsis
A dog says "bow, wow" in English and "hav, hav" in Hebrew. Whimsical animals in American and Israeli settings compare their varied noises and sounds. Readers can explore which sounds are the same and which are different in droll depictions of animals in Israel and the United States. Basic Hebrew vocabulary, including animal names and sounds, are introduced. Iconic locations like Capitol Hill and Central Park in the United States, and the Dome of the Rock and the Sea of Galilee in Israel are featured in illustrations.

    I must say from the very beginning of this transaction that everything went smooth. The seller gave me a good quality product for a great price that was brand new and appeared to be better than what was pictured. I plan on purchasing more products in the near future from this seller. The product was shipped and packaged with care and love. Magnificent communication and all of what I said makes this seller a great asset to the eBay community as well as the marketplace.
