Little Polyglot Adventures Series (Vol. 1): Dylan's Birthday Present / Diyariya Rojbuna Dylani - Bilingual English and Kurdish Children's Book


This is the bilingual English - Kurdish edition of this children's picture book. It is also available in several other languages, including in bilingual versions. While reading this book, children will learn new words in different languages and feel like little polyglots themselves!


Summary in English:


Dylan is an American boy like many others. One thing makes him special, though: his parents come from other countries and speak to him in different languages. It's his birthday today and he receives a very unusual present, only to lose it shortly after. Together with his best friend Emma, a sweet bilingual girl born to South African parents, Dylan sets out to find his lost birthday present. During their search, the two friends learn about the value of friendship, of speaking different languages, and of appreciating one's own as well as others' cultural and linguistic background.


If you are looking for a children's picture book in English and Kurdish that will help your child see the value in speaking other languages, in being multicultural, and that will hopefully get them excited about learning languages, this book is a great choice.

Bi hevala xwe ya heri bas Emmaya serin u duzimani ku de u bave we li Basure Efriqaye hatine dinyaye re, dest bi legerina diyariya rojbuna Dylani dikin. Di dema gera xwe de, herdu heval hini gelek tistan dibin: di derbare qimeta hevaltiye de, axaftina bi zimanen cuda, li ser esasa candi u zimani qailbuna xwe u yen din.
