Overview

"A high-quality bilingual children's story in Welsh and English, illustrated with watercolor paintings, ideal for bilingual families and kids who are learning Welsh or English as a second language. The story has been translated by Lowri Pitcher, a multilingual school teacher and translator with a Bachelor of Arts (BA) in Translation and a Master of Arts (MA) in Broadcast journalism. The book has 36 pages, 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 Tomos, Catrin, 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? Mae'n haf, ac mae Tomos, Catrin, Dadi, a Mam yn teithio'n �l i ynys Tad-cu! Yr adeg hon o'r flwyddyn, mae teulu a ffrindiau'n dod at ei gilydd o bell ac agos. Mae Taid eisiau croesawu pawb gyda phryd o fwyd mawr ac yn gwahodd y plant i fynd i bysgota. A fydd digon o bysgod ar gael i bawb? 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 (numbers, means of transport, family, and more) 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 Welsh, 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. ""Summer with Grandpa"" is also available in several other bilingual editions.
