Ducks, pigs, cows and chickens that are too hilarious and mischievous for their own good, are the main characters in Doreen Cronin’s beloved children’s stories. Scholastic Storybook Treasures, the DVD that brings books to life, has just released a new DVD titled Giggle, Giggle, Quack…and more stories by Doreen Cronin, featuring five of Cronin’s most popular stories. As soon as I found out that they included a Spanish version of both “Giggle, Giggle, Quack” and “Duck for President” on the DVD I knew we wanted to feature this find.
Ideal for children ages 3 to 8 that are in their first stages of reading, the stories all come with an enhanced read-along function where the words that are being read are highlighted so your child can easily follow them. That’s if he’s not rolling on the floor laughing with the crazy antics of all these silly farm animals. A duck that wants to be president because he doesn’t like the working conditions in the farm; singing cows that want to win the grand prize in a talent show; hens that want pizza with anchovies for dinner are just some of the witty stories, illustrated by lively animations, that will make TV-time feel as cozy as story time.
You can also find the Spanish-version of the book, Jaja, Jiji, Cuac and make it an interactive activity where you read the book together and then you hear it being read and come to life. Perfect for bilingual homeschooling or language immersion at home since the stories support reading comprehension, vocabulary and problem solving…in such a fun way!
Find it at stores and online at newkideo.com. Of course, you can always get it at La Tiendita and you’ll be supporting SpanglishBaby.

I love Doreen Cronin and have several of her books. I also heard her interviewed on XM kids and she is fabulous.
I think Ms. Cronin needs to add goats! We love goats here in Tennessee! And, imagine how funny a cranky Tennessee Fainting Goat could be in her books…
