Little Red Hen and the Grains of Wheat (Bilingual Children's Book) - Japanese/English
Author: L. R. Hen
Illustrator: Jago

Little Red Hen needs help planting her grains of wheat. But when she asks the dog, the cat and the goose, they are all too busy to help her. So Little Red Hen does it all herself. She grows the wheat, harvests it, turns it into flour, and bakes it into bread. Suddenly, the others are ready and willing to help her eat it... but will she let them?

This story, part of our collection of folk tales and fables from around the world, is also a winner of the UK National Literacy Association's WOW! Award 2006. The sumptuous illustrations bring the classic fable to life, and is sure to be a favorite in the classroom. The helpful list of keywords in translation is especially great for multilingual classrooms.

THIS TITLE IS AVAILABLE IN MANY BILINGUAL EDITIONS.

5 of 5 Fairy Tale in Croatian April 7, 2020
Reviewer: Anonymous Person from Bethesda, MD United States  
This book was purchased as a Christmas Gift for a 84 year old friend who was born in Croatia, came to the U.S. shortly after WWII, and now lives with one of her grandsons and his family which currently includes her two great granchildren, ages 3 and 1.  She likes to speak to them in Croatian and was very delighted to receive this book to share with them.

5 of 5 So happy to have found these! September 14, 2019
Reviewer: Barbara H. from Palos Verdes Estates, CA United States  
I bought four of Language Lizard's English/Romanian children's books as a gift for our regular waitress at the restaurant where we go every Friday night. She and her husband emigrated to the US from Romania four years ago, and they're expecting their first baby. I know the books are for "later," but I always give bilingual books to immigrant families as a "welcome to American but don't forget your roots" gift. My own grandparents came here from Italy and promptly told their children, "Not one word of Italian!" How I wish my mom knew Italian and taught some to me! These are high-quality books and I hope they help sustain the cultural bridge the recipients have built.
