This is a really cute story about a llama that doesn't want to go to sleep because his mama isn't there. I would have thought it would have been better if Mr. Kennedy would have done voices for the characters, like most people reading a story to a kid do, but perhaps he wasn't allowed. That was the reason I gave it four stars though. My youngest (2 years) couldn't follow along as easily because he couldn't tell who was saying what. Since it is a kid's book, it also would have been nice to have a downloadable book to follow along with for the kids, especially those trying to learn to read like my 5 year old.

It seems that it is a good program, but it isn't for a true beginner. I am an ESL teacher and I found that I would not be able to use this program on most of my students as they have little knowledge of the English language. The first English sentence that opens the program is very long and the man and woman speak in a formal manner in which would be weird for most native speakers to talk. I would not recommend this program for a native Arabic speaker that is just beginning English. If you use this program, you should have a little bit of knowledge on how we pronounce letters as well as some basic words such as nouns and verbs before beginning this program.
