I read about a Norwegian Logo once ;-)  Hmm...contact AFNOR, the French
standards body (try the French embassy/consulate for an addr.). They've done
a French Pascal and I believe they will do a French Modula as well.

I have a 10-year-old kid sister I want to introduce to programming (this
is in Norway) so keep me posted :-)
