I actually have one copy of this book and have used it as a reading book with a beginner (learning Creole for just two months 5 days/week) He bought his own copy from Amazon. He did awesomely well with the help of a Creole language dictionary. A few word/term choices could have been different if this were written for foreigners learning the language, but considering that it was written for native Haitian children, I thought the H Creole used in there was pretty straightforward and effortless (re: font and typeset).

Awesome! I'm more interested in it being a good, understandable translation for Haitian children than for language learners. Would you say it is a good translation for Haitian children to hear and understand?
