Description

A high-quality bilingual children's story in English and Macedonian, illustrated with watercolor paintings, ideal for bilingual families and kids who learn Macedonian or English as a second language. The book has been translated by Julijana Pavlovska Marikjevska, an experienced Macedonian translator and language teacher with a Master's degree in English language and literature. This bilingual book has 36 pages, just above the industry standard of 32 pages, and 18-page spreads as an eBook on the Kindle app. Complimentary activities and lesson plans can be downloaded on the author's website.

It's summertime, and Jovan, Sanja, Daddy, and Mommy are traveling back to Grandpa's island! This time of the year, family and friends come together from far and wide. Grandpa wishes to welcome them all with a big family meal and invites the kids to go fishing. Will they manage to catch enough fish for everyone?

Лето е, а Јован, Сања, тато и мама патуваат на островот на дедо! Ова време од годината, семејството и пријателите се собираат од секаде. Дедо сака да ги пречека сите нив со голем семеен ручек и ги поканува децата да одат да фаќаат риби. Дали ќе успеат да уловат доволно риби за сите?

Some key themes weaved in the story:
✓ Family and friends reunion
✓ Ethnic diversity is seen within a family setting
✓ Blended families
✓ Love
✓ Bicultural and bilingual children
✓ Linguistic diversity represented
✓ Inclusion (animals are also included)
✓ Several opportunities to expand vocabulary in the target language

This book makes the perfect gift for little boys and girls who have loving relatives and friends living in different countries. It's also a great addition to the libraries of children who learn English and Macedonian, language teachers, librarians, and parents who raise bilingual and multilingual kids. Perfect for all children ages 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, and up, depending on their fluency level in the target language. The use of large fonts and the choice of a white background for the text make it ideal for early readers.
