Our new favorite bilingual audiobook!

We just got the audiobook yesterday and already feel that this is one of the better bilingual books that we have found! What a great book!
I’m American and English-speaking and bought it to listen and learn some German while also teaching my daughter. Husband is German and he thinks it’s a nice story to listen to / read with her – we got the book from amazon. The illustrations are colorful and tell a great story (book comes with pdf too). The authors chose such great descriptive words making the story even more interesting. I teach preschool so, I am always looking for ways to teach vocabulary and some great science or medical facts. This book is perfect. It also gives kids some insight into what happens at the doctor’s office, which is great. This might reduce their anxiety for a future doctor's visit. It's superbly narrated in German & English.
It’s a decent length with quite a lot of words per page which is nice for the 4-year-old range now that her attention span is longer. Would recommend :)
