Bilingual Legends # 647: This book is in both English and the historical Modi script of Marathi. After being suppressed since the mid-20th century, a revival of the Modi script has begun among Marathi speaking communities keen to preserve the traditions of their ancestors by passing their own script onto the next generation.
Autorenporträt
I publish books in languages I don't speak so children can read books in languages they do speak. Legends have always fascinated me. Do they give your children a sense of wonder too? As an Australian poet, it's hard to find work in the Outback. But there are children all over the world struggling to learn how to read. Some of them have hardly any books in their native language. That's why I created the Bilingual Legends series - to give as many children as possible the opportunity to read a story in their own native language. Usually, each book in the series is published in the language spoken in the land where that story originates. A typical book also includes the text in English, but in some cases Spanish, Portuguese, German, or another language is used instead. I hope you enjoy reading my books!
