Since the beginning of 2015, thanks to a partnership with librairie Renaud-bray, the Tire-Lire French language educational resource lending service features a “book of the month.” You can borrow the featured book, and many other books, CDs, DVDs, educational games, and books geared to parents and educators, by subscribing to Tire-Lire!

 

Here are two of our recent books of the month. To find out about each book of the month without waiting for the next edition of Parenthèse, follow the Fédération des parents francophones on Facebook. That’s also an excellent way to stay up to date on the activities and programs targeted to BC parents.
