A funny series about an endearing marmot that reads with English on the left page, Spanish on the right.
For older kids: 8 years and up.
A good resource for bilingual families (grandparents/parents/guardians can read side by side with their children). Great for reading out loud practice, listening to pronunciation, and learning new vocabulary.
Follow Magali and her animal friends on their crazy adventures in the French Alps!
Magali and Mishka stumble across a farm high up the mountain. The marmot and rabbit race to the gate to lift the lever. The farm animals stare at them.
Mishka calls to them.
'Hurry! The gate is open! Escape from prison!'
A fat duck waddles over.
'Prison? This isn't prison. This is paradise! We have free food, free lodging, and free para...'
The farm animals gasp. They shake their heads at the duck.
Hmmmm... why are the farm animals being so secretive?
Magali, Mishka, and their friends set out to discover what is really going on at the farm each night!
The series is about making new friends, trusting gut instinct, trying new activities, and learning about teamwork.

Magali y Mishka encuentran una granja en lo alto de la montaña. La marmota y el conejo corren hacia la barrera y la escalan. Tiran de la manivela de la valla. Los animales de la granja se quedan mirándolos.
Mishka dice:
―¡Deprisa! ¡La verja está abierta! ¡Escapad de la cárcel!
Una pata gordita se acerca.
―¿La cárcel? ¿Crees que estamos en la cárcel? Esto no es una prisión. ¡Esto es el paraíso! Tenemos comida gratis, alojamiento gratis, y para...
Los animales de la granja jadean. Niegan con la cabeza ante la pata.
Hummm... ¿por qué son tan misteriosos los animales de la granja?
¡Magali, Mishka y sus amigos se proponen descubrir qué ocurre en secreto en la granja cada noche!
