Learning Polish for children has never been more fun! Following on from the success of the wildly popular The Fabulous Lost and Found and the little Polish mouse, bestselling author, and writer on the Emmy Winning Tales of Peter Rabbit, Mark Pallis returns to make learning Polish for children even more fun! "Lingo Dingo loves to help. Anyone. Anytime. Anyhow...." In this heartwarming story, Lingo travels to the stars to help a Polish Astronaut. There's just one problem. The Astronaut only speaks Polish.... What could go wrong!?! This heartwarming English Polish kids book: Blends an English language story with over 50 Polish words and phrases so that children learn Polish without realising; Builds a child's confidence in engaging with a new language; Cements the foundation of a lifelong love of the Polish language. And now with the follow up bilingual Polish English story, Lingo Dingo and the Polish Chef, you can learn another 50 Polish words and phrases! This book uses the unique Story Powered Language Learning method work to help children learn Polish without realising it. Unlike other Polish English books for children, or traditional bilingual Polish English childrens books (or bilingual Polish English kids books), this Polish language learning book for kids is different. We take a fun character, Lingo Dingo, who kids will love, and then we put her in a tight squeeze, where she needs to figure out the meaning of the Polish words and phrases in the story in order to help save the day. Kids will be so busy laughing that they don't realise they're learning. Message from the Author I am passionate about learning languages. There is something special about that sense of connection you get when you talk to another person in their mother tongue. The expression 'they really spoke my language' really captures that magic feeling. So unlike other Polish childrens books, this book makes Polish for kids fun. I really wanted to focus on words and expressions that would make people smile. Imagine the joy on the child's face when they say that special phrase to a native speaker! They'll feel so proud, and you will too! with my best wishes, Mark Pallis This book has been designed to appeal to anyone with an interest in the following: Cool kids speak Polish 1, 2; Polish language learning for kids; kids books 1 year old Polish; bilingual Polish English kids book; learning Polish for kids; Polish for kids beginners; kids Polish books for 2nd graders; Polish flash cards for kids; Polish language learning kids; learn Polish for kids; Polish workbook for kids; English Polish kids books; Polish kids books, Polish childrens books; Polish childrens books in Polish; Polish for children; Polish English childrens books; Polish textbook for children; learning Polish for children; learning Polish story books for children; Polish dictionary children; learn Polish children; Polish stories for children; bilingual Polish English childrens books; Polish language childrens book; Polish language learning for kids; kids books 1 year old Polish; bilingual Polish English kids book; learning Polish for kids; Polish for kids beginners; kids Polish books for 2nd graders; Polish flash cards for kids; Polish language learning kids; learn Polish for kids; Polish workbook for kids; English Polish kids books; Polish kids books, Polish childrens books; Polish childrens books in Polish; Polish for children; Polish English childrens books; Polish textbook for children; learning Polish for children; learning Polish for children; Polish story books for children; Polish dictionary children; learn Polish children; Polish stories for children; gift polish kids
