The Story

A high-quality bilingual children's story in Irish and English, illustrated with watercolor paintings, ideal for bilingual families and kids who learn Irish Gaelic (Gaeilge) or English as a second language. It has been translated by Lauren McMahon, a primary school teacher with a Master's degree in Education (MEd) who teaches in schools that use Irish as the first language. 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 Séan, Niamh, 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? An samhradh atá ann, agus tá Séan, Niamh, Mamaí, agus Dadaí ag taisteal ar ais go dtí oileán Dhaideo! An t-am seo den bhliain, tagann teaghlaigh agus cairde le chéile ó chian is ó chóngar. Ba mhaith le Daideo fáilte a chur rompu go léir le béile mór teaghlaigh agus tugann sé cuireadh do na páistí dul ag iascaireacht leis. An éireoidh leo a ndóthain iasc a ghabháil do gach duine? 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 Irish, 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.
