Le Petit Prince (The Little Prince)

http://www.lepetitprince.com/#/?lng=uk

Summary: This website is based on one of the most famous French characters of all time: Le Petit Prince (The Little Prince). The website includes interactive activities, games, a forum, news, and background information about the author Saint-Exupery. A teacher could use the site initially as an introduction to the story, and then students could return to later to complete activities.

Commentary: The website has dual-language settings and can be accessed in either English or French. This makes it accessible to beginning level students who perhaps haven't had sufficient exposure to the language, and to advanced level students who are reading the text. The design of the site is appealing and makes it easy and fun to navigate. The interactive aspect provides the student with the opportunity to explore additional aspects of the story that are not available simply by reading the book. Students would be able to expand their understanding of the book on a more global level as well, by following news updates. The website serves as a wonderful addition to the book. I rate it 5 out of 5 stars.
