Listen Listen

Listen Listen is a bilingual English–Vietnamese rhyming picture book from Mantra Lingua for young children and families who want simple, repeatable language exposure through story time.

The text is built around short sound words and seasonal nature scenes (geese honking, leaves swishing, winter snow). You can use it like a normal read-aloud, pointing to the English and Vietnamese lines as you go.

If you have a Mantra Lingua TalkingPEN or PENpal, this title is sound enabled. That means kids can tap pages to hear native-speaker audio plus extra content like animal sounds, facts, and interactive games. The main limitation is that it is not a structured Vietnamese course and it will not teach grammar or conversation by itself. It works best as a fun listening-and-reading supplement alongside other learning activities. You can buy the book on Mantra Lingua’s US store.
